[RC] Flordia Training & UAE - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Dian Woodward dwcsarabs@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

I need a drink....... the shoeing was changed, and changed and changed over and 
over again. X-rays were provided before. The riders were doing the best they 
could under the circumstances. There will have to be major changes occuring in 
both Farrier & Vet practices and protocol.

Feed was not changed. Feed & supplements were shipped over. UAE has everything 
over there we have here.  Remember, they built their own endurance stadium, and 
learned about feeding & supplements from all over the world.  They have 
unbelievible state of the art vet facilities, most vets would die for.

Why does ridecamp always compare their races to ours?  They have no interest in 
a 5 day race.  Could you imagine riding in the sand for 5 days or staying out 
there for 20+ hrs? Why are they expected to be like us?  Why can't they do 
endurance the way their terrain allows them to. They don't have the terrain we 
do.  They can't train for Tevis/Big Horn/Old Dominion over there.
