Re: [RC] logbooks etc - rides2far

When you present your horse for vet checks during the ride, they 
have a desk where all the books 'live'.  Probably an identical 
system to the card system. (or do you take your cards with you?) 

I'd say you'd get more resistance from fear of needing an more workers
and additional bookwork than from any fear of tighter constraints on
riding. I've managed a ride where I had to sit in a drippy tent trying to
sort through multiple pages where the in timer recorded the finishers and
kept starting new sheets as the last got too wet, then didn't number the
sheets and it was all a runny mess. It's just scarey to think of handling
something that's considered permanent in those conditions.

As a rider, I'd love to have a logbook that recorded all his rides in
order, etc. As a manager I'd be really worried picturing 200 entries and
a person with a box of log books trying to find each horse's book without
delay as they enter the P&R area. Seems that if you just wanted to keep a
watch on horses that were pulled, having a logbook in your glove
compartment that had to be presented for a notation if the horse is
pulled would be just as efficient. Then you'd have to present your log
book at vet in for them to check for notations maybe?
