[RC] 25s vs 50s - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Rob Losey jrlosey@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

25s vs 50s, I sure have read a lot on this. Yes I'm new to the sport. I'm 50 
years old, worn out, riding a young mule and started without a clue. I've done 
three 25s and I'm proud of it. I don't need an award to feel proud. It's just 
someting inside between me and my mule. This feeling inside shouldn't take 
anything away from the other riders who have done so much more. The argument 
seem to stem from LD rider calling themself endurance riders, as though this 
take something away from the bragging rights of the 50 riders. For those who 
are bothered, I'm sorry. While proud of my acomplishment, I admire yours and 
hope to join you on a 50 someday. You don't need to call me an endurance rider, 
If it make you feel better you can just call me, "The old duff on the mule".

If your one of the many 50 mile riders who welcomed me on your trail and made 
me feel a part of the sport you love, Thank You.

If your a endurance rider who feel that my 25s some how take something away 
from you acomplishment or bragging rights, sorry. You just are someone who 
needs more recognition. I can do that. :-) Your wonderful riders, with fit 
horses and you're pretty too. I hope this makes you feel better.

"The old duff on a mule"  Rob

P.S. The best riders I've mee don't have to brag.
