Stensgar Mountain- First ride (real long)

Congratulations also on your first ride. Lynette is so right! (Lynette, your email address is goofed up, cannot email you, it gets returned) I started out on field trials and then graduated to competitive trail riding then endurance. I NEVER in a million years thought that I would ever do 20-25 miles let alone 50 which I sort of did too. It was really more of a mental block than anything. Not believing that I could do it but went ahead and did it anyway. It's fairly easy to do once you keep conditioning. It goes faster than you think. Try it, you'll like it!!! Oh, and I also said I would never wear tights, but Claire Toomey told me that once I wear them I'd never go back to bluejeans. Claire, you were so right. Just love riding in tights. Makes you a better rider too. Me anyway. Go for the gusto and try a 50 when you feel wild and crazy. :-)

Never say never when it comes to endurance. Wasn't it Angie thatsaid she would NEVER
wear tights? But found out that once you
are hook on endurance you do a lot of things that you never thought
you would do. (Angie will have to send you that post, it was hilarious)

Congratulations on your first ride. It just gets more fun the more you do it.
And before you know it you will be thinking about maybe getting one of
those A-rabs and do a 50!
