I know there are several riders out there who do endorsements. I don't
know what their kick-back is from these products, if any.

About 10 years ago I knew of an endurance rider who had a sponsorship from
Coors Brewing Company I believe. His name is Buck Buchanan and he did live
near Grand Jct., CO. He hasn't been riding lately, to my knowledge. I
have no idea where he is now. It would take some research, but I could put
you in touch with someone who probably knows where he is. If you are
interested.

Hi - I'm forwarding your message to the endurance listserve. I don't
know of any sponsored riders, but someone else might.

I was just reading the Endurance Riders Home Page and thought
you might be able to help me with something. I am writing a
book about sponsorships and scholarships for riders. I have
spoken with numerous dressage, jumper, driving, western people
but no endurance riders. Some of the people I have spoken with have
been offered sponsorship while most have had to actively seek
sponsors. The book deals with the how-tos of finding sponsor-
ship. Do you know of any endurance riders who have sponsors, and
if so, could you put me in touch with them or them with me.

Thanks for your cooperation, and I look forward to hearing
from you.
