[RC] You know you're an EQ when... - heidi larsonI kind of fixed the color issue Dawn, my colors for one are blue/purple, one lime green/purple and the new set is black and lime green, so I should be able to mix and match most of my tack! And, the great colors make it a little easier to find my ride photo! And......... I can't be accused of ever cutting trail, if you've seen me out there in the PNW, I stand out like a neon blinking bar sign!!! :) heidi --- Dawn Carrie <rdcarrie@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: LOL...my motto is, since I'm not going to win, I might as well look good coming in last! I have a rainbow tie dye shirt from the first ride my friend and I put on...so got a pair of black tights with a rainbow stripe to wear with it...when I wear that combo, I braid Bear's mane with lots of different colored hair ties. I have an orange/yellow tie dye shirt from the second ride we put on...so got a pair of black tights with a multi-orange/yellow stripe. I use orange and yellow hair ties to do Bear's mane for that outfit. Bear (bay) has red tack, Sundance (chestnut) has green. But my saddle pad and pommel bags are red, so poor Sundance looks like a Christmas ornament when I'm riding him. I draw the line at buying new pommel bags and new Equipedic pad to use when riding Sundance, though.

To me, this would be a sign that the person hasstoppedbeing an endurance rider and has become an EQ instead. Real endurance riders don't care about the color oftheirtack and don't replace it until it has become non-functional...and often, not even then, if it can be "fixed" with some baling twine. kat Orange County, Calif. :) "If the end justifies the means, everybody isjustified."John G.
