RE: [RC] [Consider This] Endurance riders told to clean up theiract - Rebecca HackworthOK, the Equitation and Education absolutly. Bring it on.....but the dress code? At FEI, I thought there was a dress code in place. Or is that only for the USA? ---- Original Message ---- From: raneller@xxxxxxx To: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxx, considerthis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [RC] [Consider This] Endurance riders told to clean up theiract Date: Thu, 19 Jun 2008 05:46:50 -0700 I like the idea of improving equitation A LOT. It makes me crazy to see these pictures of horses at the international level with their riders riding like a frozen sack of potatoes..yanking these poor horse's heads straight up in the air and leaning back against their mouths.
