RE: [RC] 25 miles or 50? - David LeBlanc

I think it's her first AERC ride ever. I'd tend to go with the LD for the
first learning experience, though I once rode with a woman on her first ride
and it was a 50 - she had the benefit of having 2 friends with a lot of
experience.

Chelsea:

The essentials that you need are ; the horse, you to ride it, 
and the attitude that you will have fun. 

Anything else is just superfluous and icing on the cake. The 
only way you will ever do a fifty will be to sign up for it 
and just do it.

Hi, it's me again! Thanks for all the help with my last 
question, now I've got another. I've been trying to figure 
out whether to do the 25 mile or 50 mile ride at Wickenburge. 
How do you decide whether you and your horse are ready for 50 
miles? Also, since it will be my first endurance ride, should 
I just stick with 25 miles even if we are ready for 50 so 
that we can kind of learn the ropes of it? I guess I'm kind 
of getting nervous now that I've actually decided to do one. 
How complicated are the vet checks? I've looked at lists of 
suggested stuff to bring and it seems like a hec of a lot! 
What are the essentials that I and my horse will need?

Thanks again!
Chelsea
