Team, We've officially moved to our new home here at Yahoo Groups. Things work pretty much the same as they did at our old location. The basics that you need...
Good job Mike!!! Very smooth transition to Yahoo. I really like the Yahoo groups and belong to several. Everyone needs to check out the group functions...
Thanks Merry! There are a lot of nice features about the Yahoo Groups site. As moderator of the Forum my life gets significantly better. The tools for managing...
Next weekend is the last chance you will have to get your/horse's name on the Tribute Trail Map for Ride Over the Rainbow. Come on all you multi-dayers! Pay...
Just a reminder that Ride Over the Rainbow is coming up soon! If you enter before the 19th of June you don't have to pay an extra $15! AND if anyone is doing...
First, I want to make it clear that I'm just playing devil's advocate here. The AERC BC is used in Central Region, with many ride managers also giving a high...
Nancy, I agree with you. If AERC wants to discourage racing, they should change the BC points system for LD to put less emphasis on time in. chris ... ...

The AERC is the members. It's not some big brother that dictates moral values. The members in essence own the organization. Endurance riding is a big tent....
I think we need to stop and think about the purpose of the sport here, Truman. Is it to make money? I realize that the limited distance riders are a growing...
Laura, I'm glad to see that you recognize that LD riders want recognition for their efforts. Does that mean that you'll award an AERC LD BC at Oakland Hills 25...
The issue is the desire of the membership. The AERC rules and by-laws were not etched in stone that were found at the foot of a burning bush. They reflect the...
Nonetheless, AERC is an organization for endurance riding. If the "majority" no longer wants to endurance ride, does that mean they have the right to change...
We spent last weekend at the quite wonderful three-day Wild West ride (West Region) which was put on by Robert and Melissa Ribley (some of you may remember...

I appreciate all of the discussion going on here and elsewhere about the role and future of LD to our sport. There are sound arguments on all sides of the LD...
The AERC bylaws define two different events - "endurance rides" and "Limited Distance rides." The bylaws give no preference nor do they go into much details...
Lucy, over the past 30 years I have ridden four or five horses that injured suspensories. I kept wondering WHAT I might have been doing wrong and looked for a...

As Barbara points out - maybe there is something you are over looking. I only know a few riders that have ever had suspensory injuries (and for the most part...
Your last sentence is certainly true! I have only one of the horses I mentioned left.....the others have gone to horse heaven. They all had good ...

My vet calls suspensory injurie the "dressage injury" since they tend to get it from extended trot at the higher levels. He also says he doesn't see it much in...
I would be looking at the feet. Besides going too fast, I think having low heel/long toe is probably the biggest cause of leg injuries. Another suggestion is...
... Feet would be my first guess. ... At least in humans a ligament injury is a whole 'nother kettle of fish from a tendon. I've had both. Tendons being end's...
... Nick Warhol and I were discussing that fact during the WW ride - he also had a similar problem with Shatta and figured it was because he trotted so big. I...
