Meh.

I can't say I feel very bad walking back under saddle before getting off. Perhaps in an ideal world I would have a groom at the finish line with ice and water and untack and cool off right...

"Need" is probably a strong word. There are already quite a few XC courses around this part of the country, but they all get pretty well used. I am sure if it is built it will get regular use.

Is this long thread really running on what somebody might have implied in a letter that most people participating in the discussion have not read, but read one person's paraphrase of?

I was maybe not explicit enough. What I was trying to say was that there is also a significantly increased risk for another few weeks after the cast comes off but while the knit is relatively fresh...

There is no way to reach all people. Even if you stuck a poster on every trailer and had a town crier in the middle of warmup ringing a bell and yelling "Hear yea, hear yea" some people would miss...

It would seem entirely possible to me that the rider is safer (from rebreaking the arm) in the last week before the cast comes off, than in the week after the cast comes off and is no longer...

Small rings make good sense for the bottom end of pony club, which is where the rest of the world uses them. Otherwise the dressage judge is still there next Tuesday waiting for a kid on a Shetland...

I was mistaken, they do actually define forbidden substances separately from the FEI, but it still does not mention intent. Part of the wording in GR410 is:
"For purposes of this rule, a forbidden...

It would be a crackup to see it actually play out, but in general, what you think or believe or are ignorant of is generally not important to the application of rules. I can't see "but I think it is...

Top plan. While we are at it, let's ban cars for a year and come back fresh in 2009 after we have rewritten the road rules to stop people having car accidents.

No standard specified in Australia, so the tipp would be fine (and is reasonably popular) there.

Depends what the problem is.

If the problem is poor driver training and assuming that an articulated combination of truck and trailer can be driven as though it was just a long minivan, then you...

Ignoring doubts over any other part of the story, that really does not ring true for me.

I have rarely seen even a no-name *** rider both putting their own boots on and taking them off at an...

Wow, you signed up for a new account on the forum just to insult me. I feel very special.

Somebody selling you something always gives factual, unbiased advice, and checks their sources carefully, right?


If you take automotive engineering advice from your vet, do you take medical...

Huh? Of course it matters. It always matters if advice stated as black and white fact is true. Did some random person make it up or is there a credible source for it?

What if the magic safe...

I am just curious why that particular number is quoted as gospel. Where did it originally come from?

Did somebody do some sums?
Was it true for variants of a specific vehicle?
Did somebody make...

Go on then, tell me about one. Which horse trails did this fall happen at? What type of helmet was the person wearing? What was their name?

Anybody know which stone tablet this 116" wheelbase commandment was originally chiseled on? Or is it just one of those things that must be true because "everybody says so".

I think you are missing an important part of human psychology. If you make cross country day easier, everybody will just move up one level. People have a level of risk that they find acceptable,...

You really see it as a major problem?

How often do you think there is an accident where the person was wearing a helmet, but would have been less severely injured if the helmet was different.
...

I'm signed up for novice.

I can see how that saddle would case a divorce.

I think you and I have different definitions of the phrase "fairly laid-back person", but I was curious about one?


What kind of tack to you trim? If you are the kind of person who wants...

I'll be there.
