When I do a 100 I want to go somewhere and I want to see something. The
mental part of a 100 is as difficult as the physical part and repeat
trail - unless it is a "lollypop" where your are coming home on the
trail you went out on wears on you (at least me ) mentally. I am sure
if it wears on the rider it also wears on the horse.
I was expecting to be winding down out of work so I would have more
time to travel and ride. But seems that I am busier now than ever and I
don't see it letting up - unless I just refuse to answer the phone.
When my Uncle tells me he thinks I can help, I have a difficult time
saying no.
But I did buy a new truck so we can travel and we are planning a short
trip this summer to the mountains. So there is hope. I do hope to make
it to both your ride and the Big Horn some day.

Truman, it's too bad you live
so far away from CA and Swanton Pacific 75/100. Both are one-loop
rides, both are tough, AND beautiful. I think you would like either
one; they fit your preferences of trail lay-out.
Barbara McCrary, ride mgr.
