Re: [RC] Weight Divisions!! - rides2far


My preference would be to drop all tack and water from the 
weight..just> what's on your "body".  You "choose" to carry "stuff". 
You don't 
have to,> just like you don't have to carry a GPS, or a heart monitor.

I don't believe it would be good to drop the weight of the saddles. That
would encourage heavier people to use lighter saddles and often the
lighter saddles don't distribute weight as well. A saddle & rider is
enough. I didn't understand not weighing bridles in FEI. I can see
leaving off waterbottles though. I agree we have too many divisions. I've
had my butt kicked too many times by a HW to think I'm at that much of a
disadvantage competing against the smaller FW.
