[RC] We love LD - Dede Johnson




Another point of view- SOME of us LD riders are perfectly fine with the way LD is. We understand the purpose and rationale of why it's not considered endurance. We enjoy riding that distance for various reasons. We understand that it cost the same amount of money for us to ride 1/2 the miles of the trail (It's not the trail that costs). We appreciate the fact that LD rides DO exist and we make it a point to treat ride managers and all volunteers with respect and make sure to thank them (and bring them treats). We appreciate the awards we get at each ride. We have never been treated poorly or looked down upon because we ride LD. With a rare exception, our encounters with the riders riding the 50 milers have been pleasant and polite and we try our best to reciprocate.

Most of us out here are NOT complaining!

Team Slow Poke
