Many people like us use the 25 milers for younger horses, older horse and
for us - as older and injured riders - and don't consider it fair or sensible to
punish those of us who USE LD rightly in order to try to fix a mentality that is
not relegated only to LD. We ride AERC because we don't enjoy CTR - some people
do - we don't. Got enough adjudicating in the show ring for 30 years. Don't
punish us - find a suitable solution - this would not be it.
