[RC] Losing Rides - GarnerTI guess I didn't see the original post either! I've never been able to do Norco (I teach school & it's just too soon at the start to take a Friday off), but I've heard great things about it from my friends. No matter how much planning goes into an event, there are always things that happen at the last minute, and there are things that are beyond the RM's control! Weather, trail marking vandalism, etc. Plus you cannot please all the people all the time! Some people just like to gripe & cause problems! I've only been to one ride that I really didn't like. I thought there wasn't enough water on the ride, I didn't like the vets, etc. However, I have never bad mouthed the ride on Ride Camp, nor have I whined to the point that the ride doesn't go on! I have chosen not to attend that ride anymore! Since the ride continues on successfully (without my attendance), I can only assume that the majority of the riders did not share my OPINION! If Norco & the other rides that Lynn has put on are not happening because of complaints, that makes me feel really bad. I've never put on a ride (I'm still inexperienced), but I've helped mark trail. My husband helped at Lost Padres driving crew bags to vet checks, etc. He hadn't planned on doing so much, but they ended up needing the help. We all need to pitch in & help without whining!
