Re: [RC] Convex mirrors for trails - Pam DeMerchantKnowing how incredibly acute my gelding's hearing is, I would think the bells would be really annoying for him... -----Original Message----- From: "Winter, Randy or Cheryl" <cherylrandy@xxxxxxx> Sent: Dec 2, 2005 12:05 PM To: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [RC] Convex mirrors for trails There are a couple of places on trails and small mountains roads that have convex mirrors. Not sure what they are made of, but obviously can withstand wind and weather. I would think this could be a option for bad corners on trails were people cannot see each other, and there is a high potential for bad accidents. The mirror is positioned such that whatever way that trail users come from they can view "around" the corner so everyone knows who is coming and to slow down. The other thing that I personally do at times is to wear a set of three sleigh bells on my horses breast collar. many people have told me they have heard me coming before they see me. Just some ideas. Cheryl Winter Colorado =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
