Theresa,

She should be just fine..! I do 25 mile training rides all the time with hay 
only, and at times do "speed intervals" that are likely faster than she will 
be going at any time..!

Ride, go ride..! A nice wet sloppy mash after the ride wouldn't hurt 
though!..and all the carrots he wants..:)

> I have a friend who is thinking of doing an LD and only feeding hay.  I 
> asked why and she said she couldn't get over to where her horse is every 
> day for a few weeks prior to a ride to slowly add feed to his diet. She was 
> afraid it would upset his system if she just decided to give it to him at 
> the ride.  Has anyone successfully done a ride feeding only hay?  We are 
> talking a slow conservative LD.  She also wondered about giving an ener-gel 
> type of energy booster if his energy wanes later into the ride.
>
> I hadn't ever tried it  before as my horse would probably kill me if I 
> didn't give him his "ride food" (I think he is definitely in it for the 
> grub)  :) So, She asked if I would put it out on ridecamp and see what you 
> guys had to say.
