Re: [RC] New Ride Manager Questions - Lynne Glazer

Sorry, can't agree on that. It does make it tougher to purchase-- putting T shirt size on the entry form for rides with pre-entries helped me get a feel for the breakdown.

Juniors in particular dislike tent-like Tshirts. I hate T shirts whose sleeve end hits my elbow's crook, permanent tickle, ick. Larges do that.

One year we gave a large western cantle bag (donated by Stateline Tack) for our 50 turtle award, cause they were out there a long time and should pack a lunch! We liked to give fun awards, like hard luck (sometimes for adventures getting to rides.)

how cool and exiciting. A new ride! Dang, I wish Nevada wasnt' so far away from Kansas!

I like lots of markings. don't forget you can use "pie plates" or other markers to mark turns. My biggest bugaboo about trail marking is where two or more trails intersect and you have no idea which way is the right way to go. Pie plates or somethign with arrows really helps in those cases.

On our local trails, the "off" trails or places we are not to go are marked with yellow ribbon. It simply means "don't go there." Might be a hazard or just part of the trail we're not using.

Maps are nice, but if a trail is well marked, I rarely consult the map. As for t-shirts, I've seen RMs just have large and xlarge. Even the featherweights and lightweights generally like a loose t- shirt.
