RE: [RC] you know... -- A Ridecamp History Lesson... - Linda Cowles

What a hoot, huh?! All of those old talks have been saved for prosperity in
the rec.eq archives.

I wish I'd had your email send to me privately that kind of went "... What
do you think about...?" and I said "Wow! Can you DO that?" !!!  And I signed
up.

I love Ridecamp and everything it's become...  the simple questions asked
over and over, the tribal knowledge and scientific facts we share with the
best of intentions, turning the same information over in our minds looking
for new insights and fatal flaws... Challenging each other, calling each
other on egotistical statements and moments of stupidity... The
celebrations, the jokes, the  whining... The hours of insight and
assistance, the community... We're a family.

You enhanced Endurance by imagining RideCamp and going for it. 

That's got to feel good... It was a bold step... Thanks for being a great
steward!

Wow, that's amazing. And ten years later the topics still 
haven't changed much :)

Linda - it's incredible that you found the original email!  I 
have met so many  wonderful people, all around the world, 
thanks largely to this Internet Endurance community. It is 
quite amazing, a very special collection of very eccentric 
horse people!

Indeed - Happy Birthday Ridecamp!

Steph

Ridecamp History Lesson...

Once upon a time a group of endurance riders used to lurk in 
a Newsgroup space called Rec.Equestrian.

These endurance riders included Truman, myself, Karen 
Sullivan (Sullys Maze), Linda Merims .... and other folks too.

On January 4th 1994, one of the endurance riders posted a 
message that is summarized in the Google search engine like this:

Endurance Riders PLEASE READ THIS
... many endurance people are actually wired, and would 
either be interested in or benefit from this resource. Please 
respond one way or the other - you can email ...
