[RC] looking at the archives - Michael Maul

*In response to*:"Just looked at some of these old records for fun, and I am just blown away! WOW!!For example at the INDIAN CLIFFS Ride in 1986 Trilby entered with 2 horses and took 8th and 10th place? She rode 50 miles on one horse in 4:15 then must have saddled up another horse after she finished with the first one, started way late and rode another 50 in 12:00 (well her actual ride time would have been less than 12 hr

Another interesting fact I noticed, that the winner, Darolyn, rode 50 =
miles in 2:59 hrs??? They must have been flying. Those ride times are =
really fast.Some of the other results seem to have the wrong date, as she is listed as riding two rides at two different locations on the same date, I would imagine, that they were 2 day rides, and she rode the second day at a different location.


*****************************

I suggest being careful in looking at the archived rides. Russ and I spent a year digging out what's there from the old database.

1. there are no pulls listed as "pulls". that's why everyone in that period seems to have 100% completion rates. it's not true...

2. some of the data is inaccurate - perhaps 5-10% of it could be inaccurate. so don't take anything you see there as absolute proof.
we sometimes have the wrong rider on a horse or the wrong time.


we could not get accurate data at on LD rides from 1984-dec 1995 so we don't display it at all in that period.

all the records from dec 1, 1995 to the present are accurate.

My understanding on Trilby - a truly exceptional endurance rider - was that she started in 1984. She has about 60K miles but 3K of them were not allowed by AERC in one of the years. this produces the 57K miles shown. others such as Maryben know more of this than I do.

Trilby has the following official AERC miles in her highest year - 7115 in 1986. her total miles listed are 60,725 although the 57K is what's shown online.

Trilby is not online so has no email address.
