RE: [RC] [RC] question for female riders - carol kight

Susan,

Thank you so much for the goodies. I just got them but will distribute them. Lizzie was amazing. She told me things about my horses that were incredible. I think she had a great time and learned a lot. I provided her with a place to sleep, fed her and took care of her like I did my staff. RM is the hardest thing I've ever done. Lack of sleep, stress, emotional and mental toll is unbelievable and people don't understand how hard the RM job is until they do it. I've done my time. Thank you for your support and I'm pushing your products and will be ordering the stuff Lizzie told me my horses need. I wish I could meet you. Will you be in Ft. Stanton? Your help was invaluable.

Subject: [RC]   question for female riders

I've tried a variety of things and combinations of things:

*       Two-point trot for the entire ride (my legs gave out)
*       Sheepskin saddle covers
*       Anti Monkey Butt powder
*       Diaper rash ointments
*       Padded tights



I ride a Sharon Saare saddle and had been told that my pains were probably
due to the saddle. I sure didn't want to buy a new saddle for my comfort
when the saddle I have is such a good fit for my horse. I just discovered
last weekend that if I wear the padded Equissentials Gripbums and remove the
sheepskin saddle cover, I'm actually substantially more comfortable at the
end of a ride than when I had the cover.



I've always liked the Equissentials Gripbums, but now I'm completely sold on
their padded version of the tights. They're cool (lycra and cotton) and
stretchy with a French Terry flat-seamed crotch pad. (Healthy As A Horse is
the only company carrying the padded Gripbums.)



I've been doing LD's and have wanted to move up to 50s. My horse is ready,
but I didn't know what I was going to do about my surviving a longer
distance. No problem now. I'm scouting out my first 50 now!



Less is more!
