Stagg, I was at FITS which was a duel sanctioned ride and the FEI vet told the rider in front of me, 'NO CREWING IN VET LINE!". She wasn't crewing, just had a...

Linda, I suspect the vet was out-of-line on this unless the ride manager imposed a rule on all riders. Vets do not have the authority to impose rules like...

Now, that's an interesting statement, Stagg. You mean there currently is no education for FEI officials who are working a dual sanctioned ride? All that pomp...
It is anecdotes like this that reinforce the fact that I do not want to attend a dual sanctioned FEI ride. The last thing I want to worry about in a vet line...

I strongly agree with Kristen here and believe it's what the majority of the AERC members want. An AERC rider does not want to go to a ride and have the ...
Howard, Can you be specific about the problems you perceive? I have ridden at Biltmore that last 4 years. There were problems in 2001 and even in 2002 (where...

The problem with dual sanctioned rides is which set of rules/organization takes precedence? When you have a large ride, such as Biltmore, is it possible to...
Yes Truman, it did go rather smoothly. I wasn't complaining, just commenting. Well, maybe I was complaining a tad :) Not about the ride itself, just about the...
