Re: [RC] Mosquitoes and riding tights - Kristen A Fisher

So has anyone actually found themselves nekkid from the waist down by rides'
end from using bug spray over their tights??

What is the real damage?

Oh geez....tell me about it~! I rode at Crow Hannsen this weekend,

have "chicken pox" looking legs. >;\ Raven


That does it. Looks like we'll be able to recognize the Minnesotans by
the cigars they smoke going down the trail. :-)

Back to our good ol' Southern B-52 horseflies. I may have found an
effective repellent yesterday...horsefly guts! I noticed after we'd
killed several the remainder of the flies swarmed around us, but never
seemed to land. :-) I've heard of putting a dead crow on a stick in your
garden for crows so who knows?

We are talking about all the tools we can use to keep our horses safe and
alive at the rides. Training/conditioning is one of the best tools
available. It makes us better horseman and women, it benefits our horses
and could quite possibly be the key to preventing most crashes.

There are 2 ways to win at this sport. You take a horse and race him for a
short time and then find a new horse or you can take one horse , do the
homework and spend many miles and years enjoying that horse.
