Good Evening, Morning or Afternoon, however this email finds you! Please share our newsletter, SEDRA's November Special Edition, with your friends and family...
I am new to the endurance world but am riding in a simple english saddle since that is what I used to show jump with. However the endurance saddle seem more...
... To each his own. There are people who like all styles. My personal opinion is that those people who are *eternally* on the "great saddle hunt" and have...
Hi Natalie,  Great question. Everyone has their preferences, so if you can, try out several different types to see what works best for you & your horse. ...
I'd suggest borrowing a saddle from a friend and using it on a few long 15-20 mile rides before making a decision. Many saddles are fine for 5-10 miles, on...
Hi everyone - my horse is strong on his left shoulder/right rear diagonal. I post equally on each diag and ride balanced, but at rides, he works the LF/RR...
Angie, You can work his RF/LR by several means, here are two; spiral exercise from tracking on a circle to the left in trot. starting out on a spiral to the...
Great suggestions! Thank you very much. I don't know anyone with that game :(  I do know that I have a tendency to sit with my weight in my right...
Angie, My chiropractor noticed that from an old injury of mine, that I tend to have my right leg shorter than the left, I notice a huge difference in riding...
Well now I am an "experienced" 100 mile rider with an overwhelmingly huge number of starts,(5), and many, many, many,(3) completions :-) Drawing on my vast...
In my vast experience (4 attempts, 2 completions) I haven't ridden a 100 with multiple loops back to camp, but suspect it would be difficult. I have done a 50...
In my vast experience (1 attempt, 1 completion) the ride we did had checks both back in camp and out-checks. It's good to have a check back in camp early in...
I think I'll take whatever 100s I can find. ;-) The only 100 that I've done (twice) that was a single loop was Vermont. Awesome ride, but definitely tough...
I prefer a ride that doesn't repeat too much trail - although like Lucy mentioned, if you are repeating in the dark, it doesn't really matter as much and...
Well, Paul, let me start first with a plug for MY MOST FAVORITE RIDE EVER----the Big Horn 100---AWESOME!!!!!! Out of 9 100's (6 completions), BH was 4 of them...
I've entered 13 100's I believe, and finished 8...and did 80, 80, 75 and 70 for 4 of the pulls. Two were more point to point...Vermont & OD. The rest were...
I really do NOT like loop rides, which is why I think I am not enthused about riding many of the rides (50's too) in Texas. Also, my horses have never been...
Wow, Paul, I guess that makes me an "experienced" 100 miler too!? I also have 5 starts, 3 completions!? Hehehe? Four of my rides were loops back to camp.? The...
Also, my horses have never been thrilled with going back out on the trail after looping back into camp. That is very true with my horse Bear...he will drag...
Okay, I'm not qualified to answer as I have not completed a 100-miler yet (did have 1 start though; Tevis 2006) but my preference is loops back to camp. Here...
I'll have to rank at the "not yet experienced" 100 miler as we have started one but did not complete. We have completed a 75 though, which is at least 3/4 of a...
This post is a bit late (we did the ride Sept 20) but thought I'd share: It's always been my goal to get Magic (A Wish Granted) to complete a 100. Our first...
The Big Horn Rides are on the calendar for the MT Region! They will be July 11 and start right out of Shell, Wyoming. For those of you who would love to do a...
If you do 100s, the Big Horn is a must! It's not a ride big on frills other than what Mother Nature provides but what a ride! Once you complete it, you'll feel...
Big Horn is on my list, just have to wait a few years. Teri ... From: Debbie Parsons To: new100milers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2008 2:08 PM ...
I would just like to have EVER had the option for a point to point ride. Here in MN all we get is loops. The only ride I can think of in the entire UMECRA org...
I emailed the RM of Goethe to get the scoop on the loops for the 100 miler. Here's the plan: there will be 6 loops--20 miles yellow.....15 miles red....20...
On March 28th there will be a 100 mile ride near Perry GA. It's currently on the calendar as the AHA Region XII Distance Roundup. Same trails that the Red Barn...
From Ridecamp . . . one of the ride managers clarified the ride and the way it is listed on the calendar. Not sure if it will be recognized as a pioneer ride...
