RE: [RC] Call it Endurance? Long AGAIN <sigh> - Rae Callaway

No, it's not a "race" and scoring BC doesn't make it a race.  It can't since
there's no finish line and the finish is set by pulsing in.  You want to use
it as a training distance, then you need to train for everything you have in
an endurance ride and that includes BC.

I never understood why placing or BC was acknowledged in the first
place in limited distance rides.   I don't believe a LD ride is a true
endurance race--that's not the point of them in my opinion, and they
should not be recognized as such.

Earlier I posted my belief that Limited Distance would benefit from a
change in focus.  I also said it would be very difficult to institute a
program for LD that was not patterned after the Endurance program.
After all, that
