Re: [RC] minimum age for kids? - Alice Yovich

I'm not even talking about 50. No way would I subject my 7 year old to that even if she wanted to go! She wants to do a 25 with me. We regularly ride 15, and I thought I'd bump it up this spring. I think I'll wait till next year to do it though b/c she still needs to practice taking care of her pony. She's in pony club this year so she'll learn a lot. I think I might like that 10 year old limit too, not sure yet.

That is the only way to know if you are conditioning appropriately. I would no way bring my kid out for a 50 if it was also MY first 50 (way too paranoid for that!).

Sylvia (personally, I like the NATRC 10- year old age restriction)
