[RC] Bruce Weary/Frank Solano - Dot WigginsThanks guys. You both put things in such a nice perspective. I like the "marathon" comparison. Very applicable. And I like Frank's "endurance rider" vs. "rider" comment. Know some of both. As someone with some "endurance" miles (probably not going to grow much) and some "LD" miles (hopefully still to grow) I would sure not like to see them all lumped in one number. I like them separate. And I'm proud those miles, and the horses that gave me all of them, which ever distance. Dot Wiggins ============================================================ Riding alone is when you teach a horse all the "tools" and "cues" he needs to handle the trail, to hold a speed, deal with hills, etc. It's also where you develop the "bond" that causes him to "defer" to you before losing his cool. ~ Jim Holland ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
