Well, all I can say is WOW!

I have some very limited experience in Endurance Riding, and I must
say that on the whole you guys are the kindest, most helpful people
in the world.

Compared to show people, ERs care and are willing to help people and
horses. If someone is in trouble they will risk their own ride
finish.

Compared to most trailriders, they have the knowledge and experience
to help.

I'm very happy no one was seriously injured. I hope your shoulder
recovers well.
