Re: [RC] loose dogs mean Howard wins the ride - Flora Hillman
Someone pointed out some more -
The people that show up and
toss their dogs out for other people to feed are rabid barefoot racing
LDers who don't wear helmets while ponying a 5-year old that come gunning for
Howard while complaining that they don't get any points and have been known
to throw their easy boots at the competition and wave guns as they pass them
in dangerous narrow sections of trail as they are running hell bent for
leather over rocks chasing down Howard who is accusing them of not doing
anything for horse welfare and forgetting that they have to be pulsed down in
15 minutes or less at every check otherwise they will be branded stupid
and uncaring and not understanding anything about their horse which will keel
over dead on them anyway, so there.
Seems like we ought to have it
covered, but surely we're missing something!
And yet more...
The people that show up and toss their dogs out
for other people to feed are rabid racing barefoot helmetless LDers who come
gunning for Howard while ponying a 5-year old all the while complaining that
they don't get any points and have been known to throw their easy boots at the
competition and wave guns as they pass them in dangerous narrow sections of
trail as they are running hell bent for leather over rocks chasing down
Howard who is accusing them of not doing anything for horse welfare and
forgetting that they have to be pulsed down in 15 minutes or less at every
check otherwise they will be branded stupid and uncaring and not understanding
anything about their horse which will keel over dead on them anyway, so they
won't be able to stand for Best Condition which isn't being allowed for LD rides
anyway because LD isn't endurance and who cares anyway except Howard who is sure
LDers are funding the whole AERC and they should rise up and revolt and do rides
separately and put all the money into barefoot races so that they won't have to
mingle with those idiot people who put shoes on horses which everyone knows will
make a horse keel over dead and then the whole world will point fingers at
endurance racing so it should be renamed competitive trail riding and everyone
should leave at timed intervals so those horses with oversized hearts can be
evaluated and nobody will race unless they're in Egypt where they can run at top
speed nonestop alongside speeding SUVs full of screaming crew who keep throwing
water bottles and electrolytes at the riders who don't stop to use electrolytes
anyway but do use a GPS just like LDers who aren't sure if they're training
their horses too little because they only ride 30 miles a day 7 days a week,
hoping to start their first LD in six months and maybe stay at the back of the
pack unless their horse goes crazy and they can't stop it because they've just
decided to try out a bitless bridle at their first ride and now are too busy
trying to keep up with Howard.
