Re: [RC] FEI and 100 mile competitions - Barbara McCraryI once slept on the front seat of a pickup on a 5-day ride, rather than in a tent, which was way too cold. But that was 20 years ago!

No longer are we using tents and small trailers. Some of these LQ trailers border on the size and comfort of hotel rooms. Very nice, but not the way endurance was done 10-20-30 years ago. I think it all fits >>into a nice neat little package.....we seem to want comfort more than we want challenge. So if I'm still sleeping in the front seat of my pickup, or on the cot in the back of an open 2 horse I'm a purist? Ha, ha. I feel superior. ;-)) You do have something there though. When it's cold it feels better to get up and get on a horse than it does to stay in my bed. Angie ________________________________________________________________ Get your name as your email address.
