Re: [RC] [RC] [Endurance Riding: News] Endurance events test new ideas - Barbara McCrary
FEI became involved in endurance in the USA in
1986. It was already involved in Europe earlier than that. But back
then, there was still some semblance of endurance riding. I'm not sure
what it has become now, but the flat-land races in the UAE look different than
any endurance riding I ever knew. And I don't know what it has become in
countries with more elevation change than the UAE desert has.

Y'know, it's really nice of the FEI to re-organise endurance
riding/racing for the world. But I wonder how many of the things that
they are having to "fix" are actually a result of their involvement. That is,
without FEI participation, would any of these things be problems? They only
got involved about what...eight years ago?
