That's because it's not AERC who foots the bill for rides, it's the ride managers. There is no cause/effect relationship between ride fees and points tracking and awards. Now, the membership fees DO go to AERC... and that's the point Bruce was speaking to (I think it was Bruce... I already deleted it). -Sharon L. in Maine Former RM Quoting "Kitley, Carrie E Civ USAF AFSPC 30 MDSS/SGSLF" <carrie.kitley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: Then why not let LD's also garner points and count as part of Endurance. That's all I'm trying to say.

Campground facilities cost the same, land management fees are the same, water trucks, ambulance trailer, dinner, sanctioning fees etc are the same wether it is a 25 or 100 mile ride. As far as benefits-where else can you get a GOOD vet check 3 times for the entry price? How about the facilities we use (try a private campground and all their rules and you will appreciate the ride facilities even more). Where else could you go and have the ability to learn from such experienced folks? There are a lot more benefits but these came to mind first. Marsh the muleman quoting "Kitley, Carrie E Civ USAF AFSPC 30 MDSS/SGSLF" " So maybe . . . charge the LD rides as just that,"training rides" and charge 1/2 the fee? If we have to pay thesame feeas those doing "endurance," then we should at least reap SOMEbenefitfor the effort.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
