[RC] Fred Emigh was Pres Cup question ??? - Tx TriggerPatti posted: >>> Who is Frederick Moser Emigh ? He is listed as riding for the US. I looked in the aerc records and do not find his name. Does anyone know him ? Which region does he ride in ?Has he gone thru the tough 2 years of our selection process to earn him a spot to ride for the USA overseas? Can anyone who just shows up overseas get to ride for the USA? Did he win the Old Dominion, Tevis, or the AERC NC to earn him this honored spot among elite riders in the US? What happed to the other riders who undertook time money heart and guts to ride for the "US - how come, Jeremy, Betty, John, Joe just to name a few were not there riding for the US? Just curious<<< Not sure why you could not find his record Patti. (the link is below) Fred has been a name around endurance forever. Rides out West. And I'm sure someone can correct me, but this is an FEI event that anyone can enter. Just like 20 Mule team was earlier this month, and we had some British riders come over to ride there. I don't think anyone had to go through a "tough 2 years of our selection process to earn him a spot to ride". Step had posted earlier this week that this is the only 160km ride on the UAE calendar, and in order to compete at the championship level, riders and horses needed to obtain a 'certificate of capability' or 'COC' by completing a within a certain time frame. (forgot what it was). Of course, it is also a big money event, which would be attractive to a few. So yes Patti, I bet you could have entered the ride too. (even if Fred had never hear of you either <wink>) Here is his record if you are curious: http://www.doublejoy.com/erol/Individual/rhReport.asp?aeMbrID=487&Rider=Fred+Emigh Jonni in TX =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
