RE: [RC] [RC] Rule Change Proposal - Ranelle Rubin

Beth,

I would also add a "High Vet Score" Award for the Novice Division only. Maybe the AERC board can come up with an award that is sent to each RM who anticipates entry into the Novice class..?

Subject: [RC]   Rule Change Proposal
Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2007 11:35:00 -0800

I would like **constructive** comments on the following proposal. I am limiting it to address ONLY the "new rider over-riding their horse" problem. I plan to take the results and send it on to my regional director as a formal proposal, as long as there is some positive feedback. (For the record - this would apply to me for 50 milers).

---------------------------

Proposal: Initiate a new ride category - Novice Rider - applicable at any distance. This category would apply to any rider who has not completed 3 rides at the distance they are proposing to ride.

Rules for this category:

1. Novice riders are subject to a minimum time of completion. Completing the ride in under the minimum time will result in a disqualification. Minimum times are:
25 miles: 4 hours
50 miles: 8 hours
75 miles: 12 hours
100 miles: 16 hours

   2.  Novice riders are subject to more stringent veterinary criteria:
        Heart Rate:  3 bpm lower than the ride criteria for non-restricted  
riders
        CRI:  ??? Need some help here

3. Ride management will designate Novice Riders by issuing different-colored ride cards, or by a different numbering system, or both.

---------------------------------------------------------------

OK - start shooting.
