<< Can anyone offer some hints as to a good first 100 to do in
the NE region? I am planning on doing the Nittany 2 day 100 in July but I
realize it's just not the same accomplishment as a 1 day 100. Thanks for any
help and advise you can give me.

A 2-day is a good start....certainly, do it!!! Depending on what kind of
terrain suits your horse..you wikll have to pick your first accordingly.
Without looking at the calendar, there don't seem to be many EASY 100's out
there...Try SE region (Carolinas, Georgia) or Midwest (Illinois Southern).
If your horse is good in sand, try Michigan, SC, Georgia. If he hates sand,
stay away from these. If Ill. Southern has a 100, it is boring, but easy on
horse. Just remember, it is just a serioes of short rides 10-15 miles
each...all in one day...
Good luck.
