I always figured drafting off of another rider was
part of the game when doing endurance. The one in front can always ask
that the one behind take a turn at leading, or put the front horse into a fast
gait that the one behind can't keep up with, or just pull off and let the others
go on. Drafting is a problem if the crew is letting the horse follow the
vehicle, big no-no.
I have used red ribbons in the tail just to keep
folks from tail gaiting. I cannot believe how many ask what the red ribbon
is for! Jeanie
