<<That's already in place - it's called CTR or Competitive Trail
Riding.>>
Hmmm…. It’s nothing like the CTR I ever did. All but one of
my endurance rides (50’s and Tevis) were done before 1984 and the most
problems I ever saw was that new people did not know how to pace their horse. I
learned pacing and horsemanship in NATRC. Riding endurance was a piece of cake
after that beginning. Maybe I am wrong, but I keep reading that LD is not a “race”.
So if that is true, why would it matter if there was a cap on the finishing
time? Make the cap 3 hours instead of 4 hours. That would be a nice working
trot for 25 miles.
