I don't think 2,000 acres would get anyone's attention,
either, unless there were plans to run several loops within that acreage.
For a single loop 50, or for a two-loop 50, not using the same loop, I would say
it would take several thousands of acres. I'm a terrible judge of
distance, acreage, capacity, or whatever, but the 50 we used to manage took up
many 1,000s of acres.
I realize now from the learned insight that it would take a considerable
piece of land to put on a fun and interesting ride. Let me ask you
this.....would 2000+/- acres be enough to get anyones attention??
I understand that it would take a consider parcel size to put on a 100
miler, but what about a 50+ ride?
Second question off the land subject.......
As a pair of fresh eyes, I am interested as to the shopping habits of the
endurance rider. Why would you shop at a MegoMart like
Petsmart/Stateline Tack when it seems to me that there are several options of
venders in your own community. Your own community venders have
horse and ride knowledge as opposed to MegaMart cashiers.
I personally shop in my own community and support my local merchants.
Only if my small town store doesn't have what I need, I will then breakdown
and shop the soul stealing WallyWorld superstore. Of course I lose a day
in my life everytime I cross the threshold.
