What do you have that will preserve it?  I laughed when someone sent a
note to EN about how shameless it was to show up at a ride with old
numbers still on your horse.  Around here that's a STATUS SYMBOL.  I had
another rider point out to me that I was the only rider in our group at
Million Pines with only one number.  Boo Hoo!  Thanks for pointing that
out you insensitive slob!

My friend Faith practically used a toothbrush to groom around her numbers
after her first rides.  She managed to keep one on there all winter!
