RE: [RC] 100 Mile Apprenticeship (New Idea) - Rae CallawaySounds like an elevator ride to me. Rae Tall C Arabians - Central -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Don Huston Sent: Friday, January 13, 2006 10:20 PM To: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [RC] 100 Mile Apprenticeship (New Idea) This ride would be run as a normal 100. Everyone pays the same fee. Everyone starts at the same time. Riders that are ready and willing to try to complete the 100 would sign up as "experienced" and get a vet card for the 100. Riders that are ready and willing to complete a 50 will sign up as "apprentices" and get a vet card for the 50. All the 50's that pass the vet check at 50 miles get a completion and then continue on (subject to all ride criteria and vet checks while benefiting from the company of the "experienced" 100milers) to test themselves and their horse and learn what it takes to ride a successful 100. All awards and breakfast take place like a normal 100. The 50's get mileage only, no placing, no top ten or anything because they rode as "apprentices" to gain experience for 100 miles. This "apprenticeship" category could also be added to 50 mile rides to let 25'ers learn about 50's. Yes? No?
