Re: [RC] Fw: What will they think of next - Barbara McCraryI guess I just can't get too excited about feeling sorry for people who can't tolerate horse droppings. It's pathetic how far from reality part of our society has become.

He was telling me that horses tend to drop their load within the first couple of miles. That is why they try to have separate trailheads for hikers and equestrians that are at least two mile apart. I suppose it could be just a myth. When my guy is nervous on a unfamiliar trail, he will lighten his load near the start of a ride. That does not happen at an endurance ride. He is too busy worrying about the other horses. -Paul L =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
