Re: [RC] CTR thumbs down - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: patty pattypeck85@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== It is often common for those new to the sport, who "race" right off the batin LD rides, to find later, that was probably not the best thing they couldhave done for their horses future in the sport of endurance. Boy, I wished someone would have told me this when I first started with an outstanding talented FAST mare 14 years ago. I didn't know anything about endurance riding. I took this mare out as a 5 year old and raced her. Winning LD's, I had a blast she was so fast and so fun to ride. To make a long story short she never was able to compete to her ability because I ruined her. I blew out her suspensories. I still have her, she is 19 and still fast and fun to ride, but she has long been 'retired' from endurance.
