Because I am your parent, that's why! Because I
am older than you and wiser, that's why. I don't care what Uncle David
does and allows his kids to do, I'm not your Uncle David and I won't allow you
to put yourself in danger, that's why. Yessss!
Thank you for that parental attitude, if
you are not a mom you would be a good one. This LD thing reminds me of all the
times I had to tell my kids to NOT do something, like NOT play ball in the
street (race LD), and then they would whine WHY. I would explain that it was
dangerous (for the horse).... more whine...WHY? Because you are a little kid
(inexperienced around cars) and might not see the car (impending colic,
cramping etc) and get (the horse) hurt......more whine....I don't care, lots
of kids including uncle David play ball in the street (race LD) all the time
and never get hurt. If uncle David wants to play ball in the street (race LD)
then he can go to the streets where he lives (be the RM) but you are not
allowed to play ball in the street here (explain, accept, ignore and carry
on).

Heck I think
the LD riders who whine are just in training to become 50 milers who
whine This opinion is that of a tired and cranky ride manager who just
finished putting on a 2 day ride. I have been putting on rides since 96
and whiners just like to whine. Accept it, ignore it and carry
on
