does the ability of a rider to safely handle self and mount impact the
safety of the rider it impacts the safety of the other riders, staff, and
volunteers at an endurance ride. At some point the ride manager can be held
accountable for any problems that arise at their endurance ride. If it is
serious enough - the AERC could also be impacted. It might be civil
(liability ) or it could in some circumstances fall under criminal statues
of some states
