'That happened to me, too-my horse spooked really hard about 30 minutes into a ride, and I went sailing off. EVERYONE just charged by me. Not a single person stopped to see if I was ok or offered to help. I was really disappointed in my fellow riders. The race was way more important to them. I mean I'm talking about 30 riders, too, not just a single person.' -- Chelsea Marsh chelsea_marsh@xxxxxxxxxxx =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
