RE: [RC] re: speed at multidays - Teri Hunter

Maybe you have enough vets, but the possibilty could be the time and the
routes the riders go out at.  Our ride managers do an excellent job to make
sure we are not all bunched up.  This task takes some thinking to do and the
riders give their input at the ride meetings.

So if you have vet lines - maybe you should be protesting to the ride
management.

Not enough hours in the day for that I think! LOL Actually, I think we just
have such a big population in the West, RM's would have to have 6 vets at a
ride not to have lines. We have plenty of rides to choose from, they all
just have a lot of entries. What I'm remembering (I'm old, so take this with
a grain of salt, memory not being what it use to be hehe) most I've been to
have anywhere from 2 to 4 vets. How you get 4 vets to vet a ride when half
the vets are riders themselves, I haven't figured out yet. When they've had
4 they usually leap frog them two at time past each other to the next vet
check, it seems, so that there are usually two at any given place. But when
you've got an average of a 100 horses at a ride, you're gonna get lines.
It's a rule, you know ... that ALL the horses end up at the vet check at the
same time LOL!!! And I would never protest about the P&R lines when all
those horses show up at once. All those nice volunteers are doing the best
job they can to get all the horses through to their hold times. I'm just
happy they're volunteering!
