[RC] How to reduce costs of hauling to rides - ideas? - Angie FuraDave - I'm very interested in hearing ideas on ways to save money (and how I can reduce my carbon emissions) getting to rides. A while ago, a list was published on RC about how car maintenance can have an effect on gas mileage. I think that's worth recirculating. I'll see if I can find it.
The only other idea I can come up with is carpooling. I'm doing that this weekend at Biltmore. Sharing a ride is a great way to ease the burden on the pocketbook and keep one rig off the road (less carbon emmitted).
I wish I had more opportunities to car pool to rides. Seems like not very many people are interested in that anymore.

Angie: I think this has a lot to do with our sport, if the rising cost of gas and diesel prevents us from getting to the venue to practice it. I too am for the development of alternative energy technologies. But that is not going relieve us of our current problem which simply states is how to get myself and my horse to the ride without going bankrupt. Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell?
