Re: [RC] Local Story on Karen Chaton:) - Ericka NelsonJohn, Thanks for sharing this story. I think everybody loves it when the local newspapers celebrate endurance riders and horses. Since so many of Karen's miles were from multi-days, I have a question for her and others who ride multi-days. Ride season is coming up. I love both the Wild West Ride put on by the Ribleys and Cold Springs hosted by the Nicholsons. BUT!!! This year there is only eight days between both rides. What do all you multi-day riders think about doing these rides back to back?

The duo won the American Endurance Ride Conference total mileage title much in the same way they'd competed throughout the last several years - with steady and composed dedication week in and week out. Granite Chief accumulated 2,135 miles over the course of 2004, completing all 41 rides that he was entered in. Rides in the AERC must be at least 50 miles in length. http://www.recordcourier.com/article/20050112/Sports/101120003 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
