Re: [RC] Watering - heidiMy basic problem is this has happened at both rides I've been on. Not the grabby thing, but the people shoving in to let their horses drink. Doimas will back off and stop drinking. I thought we were supposed to be polite? I know, I know, I'm a Newbie, and probably shouldn't be complaining about anything, but this is annoying and I don't think I'm the only one out there who has had the experience. What a bummer, Cindy, because that also gives him a bad experience about water tanks! One can start by being conversational, and just suggest that you have a green horse that is timid about drinking and that you'd appreciate some cooperation. If they are just suffering from DIMR and not paying attention, that should be sufficient. If they get rude about that, then they are rude people to avoid--not sure what one can DO about people like that except try not to ride with them! It is REALLY hard to make rules against rudeness... <sigh> Heidi ============================================================ You don't have to be a 100-mile rider or a multi-day rider to be an endurance rider, but if you want to experience the finest challenges our sport has to offer, you need to do both of those. ~ Joe Long ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
