Maryben,Thanks for posting this.

And to Hillorie, kudos to you for publicly admitting to your mistake. I am 
sure it will serve as a lesson to riders and crews to know the rules and 
abide by them. It is tough sometimes to understand, but we all need to walk 
the line in order to protect our right to ride.
