Please re-read the following quote from Dave's post:

 We operate the XP rides in a very casual 
manner and try to treat everyone as we would like to be treated. While
other ride managers have a hard and fast rule about starters, we do not. 
I have personally felt that it was unnecessary to add an entry fee for a
couple of miles of riding to the pain of having to pull a horse early in
the ride, especially when it was because of a rider or a horse being
injured.   Neither AERC nor the XP Rides needs the money that bad.

I have never met Dave or Karen. I've talked to Karen on-line and we've
never had any sort of falling out.  I have no personal gripe with either
of them...I do have a gripe with the above quote.  What's his criteria
for having a start nullified? An ambulance? The horse having to be put
down? Or just "too lame to get to the first check?"
