[RC] vent and question on leash/bag - Marta Kozlowskacouple of months ago while ordering a pair of bare boots form an endurance oriented vendor, i also ordered a leash and bag for the sponge. i had a home made one which fell apart and thought i'd give the professional version a shot. i haven't had a chance to try it until today and boy am i disappointed!!!! i can't believe i paid good money for it. my mare is short, 15 hands, the leash on this stupid bag is SO short it leaves the bag hanging somewhere around my mare's knees. this may be okay when you're in a deep river, but otherwise it's pretty much useless. i'm so disappointed that endurance folk sell this kind of garbage:( and now to the question part (which may also turn out to be a design fault, warranting a separate vent) - the bag is mesh and the leash has one clip on the end. so i clip it to the d ring on my saddle and i'm left with this stupid thing dangling 2 feet above the ground. yes, i can tie it to shorten it, but that means that when i want to wet the sponge i have to untie the knot and w/ gloves on it's not a quick thing. so i'm thinking there is a trick to this but what is it? how do you loop the leash so it stays up high when you're riding? (and btw, i intend to replace the leash with my own longer version). thanks in advance for advice and allowing me to vent... grrrr! marta =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
