Yes. I don't know how to talk the ride managers into sanctioning rides. I
have been told by someone else on the list that it is too money
prohibitive in some areas to sanction the LD rides, and I can understand
that. $$ is what keeps the rides going, that and huge heart from all the
managers that put up with possibly losing money and listening to those few
that complain about everything!!:-)

You just have to check with the managers in your area and ask questions.
