[RC] Gas Prices - Val NicosonIllinois metroeast region of St Louis MO...hope that makes sense :-/ Gas prices are running from a yesterday low of $1.599 to a high of 1.699 from what I've seen at the offbrand gas stations (MotoMart, Kasey's etc). My take on all the gas prices...they are trying to desensitize us to the high prices. I remember when $1.55 was cheap and would gas up...now $1.60 is cheap. I think they will keep on doing this until we think $1.90 is cheap. I agree that this will reduce the numbers of people attending rides further from where they live. Perhaps closer-in rides might consider doing the ride more than one time per season due to the high gas prices. Happy Trails, Val __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Training/conditioning is one of the best tools available. It makes us better horseman and women, it benefits our horses and could quite possibly be the key to preventing most crashes. ~ Lisa Salas - The Odd Farm ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
