    [RC] Your Ride History - Dbeverly4


    Something really weird happened recently.  In March I had a wonderful ride at the New Cuyama 3 day endurance ride.  My horse and I completed 2 of the 3 days.  We deciced not to start the third day because he was getting some weird tack rubs and I didn't want to cause a sore.  On the second day of the ride I happened to come upon Karen Chaton and Weaver.  Weaver was very lame (head bobbing at the walk) and Karen, very wisely, chose to pull him.  She took a short cut back to camp and very clearly made a good choice for that horse on that particular day.  Here's my problem/question.  No WHERE in the results does it show Karen and Weaver as even STARTING on day 2.  Hence, they show no pull.  Ok, willing to let that one go as an error on management's part.  Then along comes Mt. Carmel.  Same thing (except not a lame horse... a bad fall, which can still happen to anybody, no doubt about it).& nbsp; She pulls, it doesn't show up!    Helllooooooooo I'm seeing a pattern here!  Karen gets to start rides and only list the ones that she finishes?????  How many of US get that privlege??  I realise that I'm tugging on Superman's cape here (she IS the person who posts a bazillion pictures from every ride and she has all the answers about easyboots, BUT......!!!)  Up until she booted me off a private list for asking these questions, she was undeniably my hero!  I have to admit that my personal opinion of her has dropped a notch (or bazillion) since then.

    So, Karen, Cowboy up!  What's your excuse? (and let's not use the old "The Ride Manager made me do it"  You know right from wrong and you sure don't mind rubbing everybody's nose it when they're wrong or have a bad completion record)

    Sylvia (I'd like to have that Pesky Pull at Tevis last year removed, can you arrange that for us?)
