Re: [RC] GREAT NEWS & a brag! - Karla Watson

Maybe she should of added....there weren't very many people in the 50 miler, like 20 or less. She wasn't going fast whatsoever. I'm surprised she top tenned. This is not a ride you can ride fast on. The ride meeting was not until VERY late. And it was very cool all day. Anyway, I thought I'd jump in to her defense since I know how well and conservative she rides. And she only lives about 1 hour from home. Most people haul into this local Portand ride and haul home afterward. But I know what you are talking about Angie with the ones that end a ride and quickly pack up and go, hauling hours home with tired horses. This ride was not the case.

You went fast enough to be top 10, and get BC...and loaded him up and
went home before the ride meeting?  Why? If you live close, surely you
could hang around for the party the manager put on for you. If you live
far away, why would you load up a horse that had been ridden hard for a
long haul? Congrats on the BC though.

Angie (sorry, just a pet peeve of mine)
