[RC] Knee galls - Nell LindquistI use "fake fleece" tubes to cover my stirrups, as I was having the same rubbing problem. They are as not bulky as the sheepskin, and have held up well so far. I have not had problems with them twisting, shifting, riding up, etc. I just recycled a set of fleecey tubes that I had purchased for a halter. I use the one that goes over the crown and the one that goes over the nose of the halter. One is a little shorter than the other, but it's not a huge size difference. If you have short legs, like me, they cover plenty of stirrup and have the added advantage of being cheaper than real sheepskin. ---NELL __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Taking the clock out of the equation makes it another sport altogether. The challenge is how to keep the sport what it is while honing our skills (both as riders and as those in control roles) in detecting where "the edge" is for each horse so that we don't cross it. ~ Heidi Smith ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
