[RC] LD vs Endurance... can't we all get along? - A. Perezdebate (the "endurance is endurance and it;s 50 miles or more..." vs "LD is legitimate in it's own right so let's stop treating it like the red-haired step child"). I pretty much can see both sides. Personally, I'd like to see some form of competitive LD if such a thing could be done safely, as I doubt I'll ever have the time, horse or money to do much more than LD (actually I'll be thrilled to get that far!).... but that does not mean I have no respect of those who disagree. So... let's stop bashing each other, shall we? Can we agree to disagree and not keep trying to undermine each other's legitimacy? Especially since THIS IS JUST A SPORT!? A.P. PS: actually the one rule I think should be changed is that LDs must be held in conjunction with 'real' endurance rides... if this were not the case, there might possibly be more LD rides available, at least here in the east, but I seem to be the only one who feels that way. back to lurking. ________________________________________________ Get your own "800" number Voicemail, fax, email, and a lot more http://www.ureach.com/reg/tag ============================================================ When you ask a Quarter horse for something he says - Sure - and when you ask an Arab for something he says - Why? - ~ Heidi Smith ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
