Re: [RC] leaving late problems with it - Kathy MayedaYeah, I was riding with a newbie rider in an LD and we were trying to do the very same thing with the drag riders! I ALWAYS go out a few minutes behind the pack, but the last time I rode with someone else we left with the pack, had a few histrionics but I survived. I guess "I AM" the one that has problems with ride starts. Not the horse. K.
