I have been training with some wonderful endurance riders who have helped me
along the way.  At the present time, I refer to myself as a "distance
pleasure" rider.  I have done quite a few 25 LD's and am presently in
training to do my first 50.  Maybe then I can change my definition to
"endurance rider."  However, if I discover I can't do that distance, I'll
still be happy referring to myself as a distance pleasure rider.
