[RC] Endurance in Greece - Bar JM RanchIs there information available to distribute on starting an endurance organization and sanctioned rides? Although my horses are much too young to begin training, I was offered a horse to ride in a few "endurance races" that have been "organized" here. After asking about the rules and vet checks and receiving only a puzzled expression, I politely refused. My vet went to the first one as a spectator and to be on hand for the inevitable. At least one horse died. The second is scheduled for March. There is interest here, just no one has any idea how to organize an event and safety standards. A Bulgarian friend, who is competing in Bulgaria's first rides, joked that he had heard of the Greek rides. Basically, a bunch of crazies running to the end to enjoy their drinks! Help! We need educating!! ===== Melanie in Greece http://www.geocities.com/barjmranch/ __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
