Re: [RC] Message in Two Parts -Second Post on AERC LD BC - PleaseRead - Truman Prevatt
So the issue is not LD but endurance BC. There are some rides where all
the horses look like crap and a BC should not be given. Why does the
BOD want to much with that. Actually I can see standardization across
the board for BC. If a riders wants to give some other award that
that's their options. However, if the rules are standardized for the
entire AERC, I sure can't support grand fathering in any ride. The OD
gives the OD Trophy which is similar to the BC at the Tevis, but they
also offer an AERC BC award. Seems to me the Tevis could do the same
and be in compliance with AERC rules and still give their won "BC
award."
True, but the plan is to change LD and
regular BC to make it mandatory to give the award according to AERC
rules and that is what has a lot of people upset. Also, they want to
give national BC LD awards. Of course they can't give the juniors
anything for doing 100 milers....but what do I know...........mb
