Re: [RC] Future WECs - heidi

It was mentioned over in Dubai that FEI is in a process of trying to
figure out what  WEC endurance is or should be in the future. Kinda the
question of these flat, paid for, anything goes crewing races in the
Middle East. Or the AERC, Tevis, Old Dominion type events.
People should write to AERC International, FEI or USEF with their
thoughts. I believe that our type of rides that include rider strategy
and pitting  ourselves and horses against the trail capture more of the
essence of  endurance riding/racing.
But the UAE will continue to put on their types of events just as we
over here will ours....

The bottom line is still who will bid to put one on.  Letters need to be
backed up by action--in the form of putting together a viable bid to host
a WEC.
