Ok -- Its getting a little out of hand here.
We don't want to run anyone off! ;-)
Lets remember to respect each other....even if
we chose a different distance and speed. There will always be bad apples
in anything we choose to do in life.
Many of us would have never made it to
our first 50 or 100, if we didn't have fun, and build confidence at
our first 25! And don't forget that 25 you tried after you/your horses
injury...............
Also remember the bills paid by the 25 mile
riders. These rides are the most popular, and these
enteries literally pay some expenses for the 100s. (and those
nice prizes they deserve that were earlier mentioned)
A 25 mile LD ride is just a nice little
trail ride. I,m an old retired endurance rider & I ride 25 miles all the
time just for fun. It,s something anyone can do. What,s makes you think you
deserve to be recognized???? Judy
