[RC] Heavyweight Riders getting slammed - Karisma KigersFellow Riders, The below comment was mostly made about me. I am a first year, LD, heavyweight rider. I'm hover around 220-230# and the pictures referenced were taken on my first and second rides (5 months after having knee surgery) http://www.kigerhorse.org Under Photo Gallery). I tried to find stats to show the involvement of the heavyweight rider and that heavyweight riders can and do accomplish incredible mileage/wins. I'm having a tough time finding this info, I know that AERC keeps these numbers somewhere. Anyway, can we set this lady straight? Over the last few months I have had to put up with this lady's "pot-shots" on a public forum. Now, I need backup. I guess what has me all fired up is the implication that heavyweight riders can't be professional horsemen! Thanks, Jillian McIntosh M35832 "The KHAR photo gallery confirms to me that we are light years away from having professional horsemen involve themselves with Kigers : pix of out-of-shape so-called endurance pairs (duh! an endurance rider has to be as fit as the horse!)..."
