Re: [RC] ROC / Conflict of interest - heidiPer the conflict of interest, Whom out there, who participates in AERC rides, would not have some kind of precieved conflict of interest? Is it possible that someone who rides / attends the same AERC rides they are sanctioning would also have a conflict of interest? What if the montitary incentive for them were a horse they have for sale (instead of all that $$$ we know RM make by holding rides). You are right that it can never quite be zero. You wouldn't want someone doing the job that was not genuinely interested in endurance, and most people like that do at some point at least ride. That said, it's a bit like horse deaths. You can never make them zero, but you can darn sure eliminate the really big and offending causes. And striving to minimize the problem is the right thing to do, instead of pretending the problem doesn't exist.
