I am right next door to Stanford at SRI and I would be happy to introduce you
to endurence (and of course I need a crew for the next ride as I will have 3
horses entered andam letting my normal crew ride one)  I have a three horse
trailer so can help there too.  We normaly only take 2 horses to a ride.   I
am not the most experienced endurence rider out there but I seem to be close
to you.  I just do a few rides a year - about 1 a month if everything goes
perfectly which it does not.
 I am a quicksilver endurence club member also so if you want to go to a
meeting you are welcome.  E-mail me privatly so we may get together.  
I want to say an official hello to everyone. I have been listening in for 9
days now and intend to continue.  I got the address from the endurence news
and have enjoyed it so far.
