Not so, Truman.  That dog won't hunt.  When you sign up for an AERC ride
you agree to abide by the rules of the AERC and the ride.  If a rider is
DQ'd at a vet check and then rides on down the public trail anyway, he
is violating an AERC rule and is subject to penalties by the AERC.  As
he's already been DQd from that ride, the appropriate penalty is
suspension from future AERC rides.

Just as a rider has the right to refuse treatment for his horse against
a ride vet's advice -- but if he does, the AERC can suspend him.
