Re: [RC] 100 mile horse characteristics - Maggie Mieske<And that camp calmly. You don't want them to have run their 100-miler in the trailer on the way to the ride, or in camp the night before...> And I'll add that for us, a nap is very important for the HORSE. :) (In keeping with the nap thread...) When Malik is comfortable, he naps, stretched full out, sleeping and dreaming away and even snoring. Those are our best rides. When he doesn't relax enough to take his nap, we don't have our best ride.

Christopher Reeve ============================================================ Many of the endurance riders in our top echelons of competition, now and in the past, exemplify the 'common man' not the hierocracy. It is this possibility, this chance to come to the fore, that makes endurance competition of the Aussie/American type so much more desirable to part of the world. ~ Bob Morris ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
