<<<Ask an FEI competitior what their first impression of all the
"ridiculous" and seemingingly "unnecessary" reagulations and safeguards.>>>

Quoting the above from Teddy Lancaster's post I ofer the following: How
would you feel when an FEI official came up to you and commented that you
would not be allowed to ride because "your riding pants are to loose" Had to
change into tight breeches to satisify them in order to ride.

Yes, this actually happened. Rider comfort made no difference, they wanted a
uniform!!! Some 60+ year old females do not take kindly to tights for riding
. That was among the lesser objectional happenings in the FEI experience.
