[RC] All The Answers? - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Jeanne Pepper pepperja@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Well folks,I could be a brat and comment that at least Some folks on Ridecamp "appear to know all the answers" but that wouldn't be very productive or helpful..so,what I meant was Carrie might have asked on this forum if anyone had been to this ride(it's not a new ride)and gotten some hints as what was to come(apparently no water at the vet check is a fact of this ride but water is available at 12 &1/2 miles or 1/2 way thru the 25 mile LD that Carrie was riding) Or she might have called the ride manager before leaving and again,asked questions about conditions.And ,if she was un sure about what to do with her already packed up vet check bag..ask someone if they would mind taking it out for her("everyone else had a crew" so alot of trucks must have driven out there).I don't know, but the 2 most important lessons I have taught new riders(and there are quite a few I've introduced to the sport)about competitions are Ride Your Own Ride & take care of your horse.If you can do these things you are doing your best,,and sure,sh** happens but at least you know you gave it your best shot!. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
