Endurance.Net Ridecamp Archives

And as John noticed, this is such an international group as well.  It's 
been a hoot having Destry around for a few months.  If a skateboarding 
American kid from Idaho can plunk down into Cairo and find friends and 
a social life, there's certainly hope for the world.

Ridecamp has been an absolute haven for me over the years from about 
1999 when I signed up and was trying to explain to a bunch of 
head-scratchers why anyone in their right mind would actually go riding 
for more than an hour at a time.  Right now all my horses and all my 
friends' horses are on notice to stay sound til Steph and Jackie get 
here so we can have some really great rambles.  I can't wait to get 
some people here who will be happy to drag some horses out for the 
whole bloody day.  Have a long way to go on stamina for my local crew.
