Re: [RC] [RC] Question for you with turtle - Peter Harper

Dawn,  We won't be at Lone Star over Thanksgiving
but we'll be at High Roller over New Years.

You'll have some tough competition, last year I turtle
both days; the 50 on Saturday and the 25LD on Sunday. 
On Saturday Lucky, me and a woman we met on the last
loop finished three across holding hands with 20 mins
to spare.  We took pity on the poor woman who was
doing her first 50 on a leased horse from DBJ. The
horse looked terrific but the poor woman was not "fit
to continue". There is something to be said for
training your own horse; you get yourself in shape as
well.  On Sunday I was riding my daughter's gelding
and this guy is sloooow.  We ran the last 2 two miles
barely made it into the P&R on time.

Bring it on girl! ;-)

Whew, that was a hard-won Turtle Award!!!  Pete is
one tough opponent!  I
had to wait and circle my horse right before the
finish line until he
crossed.  It can be pretty cut-throat here in

Texas

for turtle.  That one
(Meanwhile Back at the Ranch) was my second in a
row...I "won" my third
consecutive turtle award at my next ride, which

was

my first 100
(Bluebonnet).  Fate intervened and a lost front

shoe

cost me a fourth turtle
at Old Glory, breaking what was shaping up to be a
nice run.

Here's warning you Pete...I'll be riding a new

horse

in the 50 day 1 at Lone
Star this weekend, so if you're there, you'd

better

be in fightin' form for
Turtle!  <VBG>

As a two time Turtle Award winner this past

season

I

can speak to this question with some authority. 

It

would have been three but Dawn Carrie waited for

me at

the finish in order to claim this prestigious

award.

How was the message from the Meanwhile Ride

Dawn?

;-)


Cheers,  Pete in TX
