They were changing trail on the fly.  I was on that road loop when I heard the Trail Boss say that he wasn't sure of the mileage on that loop.  I don't...
Well, I'm not sure of the official mileage but I was carrying my GPS and when it was all over I had 80.8 miles showing. After the second yellow loop I did the...
Hi All, I was wondering what your thoughts are about the age you insist that your horse should be before their first 100 mile ride? Also how many rides would...
Paul....now I know that you are riding Piper at OD right?  Your right....it's mental and physical. Cash did his first 100 at age 8 and it was only his 3rd...

Paul,   You don't understand. IF I don't do the OD ride, it isn't because I chickened out. I have an interview with a company this coming Tuesday. I...
