Re: [RC] WEC Questions - Barbara McCraryI'm not experienced enough to give a strongly knowledgeable answer, but I can't help but wonder if the low completion rate is due the course. In this country and others, we don't have a flat, 100-mile groomed track. We deal with technical terrain, some very difficult, some less so. I just don't see how those of us who are accustomed to technical trails can compete against a flat course where the horses gallop the whole way. Also, in this country, and I'm sure others as well, our horses are not considered expendable. "Oh well, if this one doesn't make it, we'll buy another" or "If this one dies, there are always others." Anyone want to make a bet that there are horses lying beneath the sand that no one know what happened to them?Barbara ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ridecamp Guest" <guest-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 27, 2005 5:49 PM Subject: [RC] WEC Questions Please Reply to: Kim kimfue@xxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
