Re: First Ride

I am taking a baby step forward and trying a 15 mile Competitive Trail Ride 
this Saturday and was hoping for a few tips or pointers from you "Upper 
classmen/women".  In particular, I was wondering if I should get myself a 
real wool pad before this event?  I have just used quilted Roma pads without 
any trouble..Although from reading ridecamp posts, I'm just wondering.   
Also, since this is just a 15 miler, should I worry about electrolytes?  If 
so, when should I give them and can anyone recommend a recipe or brand?

Sorry I sound so green - - It's only cuz' I am..
