Right.  I am very aware that some groups would love to kick horses off trails.

Merri and Carla, I know this isn't popular, but as someone who is a motorcyclist AND an equestrian and has shared the same trails with both, there are plenty of folks out there who would love to throw horses off public trails.  There are also plenty of jerks in both sports.  Hikers &/or environmentalists will show lots of examples of trail damage and cut switchbacks, etc. made by horses.  They, too, have some pretty appalling photos.  As an endurance rider, I would be very careful about trying to ban any other multiuser.  You will be next...may take years, but once people start banning one group, others will fall.  Cindy
