>>>> the listing of the results in the OD newsletter list all rider and
the outcome of their ride. For riders not finishing it list the reason why
- lameness, metabolic, rider option or overtime. I knos this is not done
be the AERC but I for one like the idea of a complete listing of the field.

<<<If AERC is collecting this data..are WE going to able to see it? Use it
for future? What IS the point? >>>

Teddy:

The statistics of one ride are absolutely non-definative and worthless. To
be of any use many ride results over a period of several years ( I would
want a minimum of five years) with the statistics properly reported would be
required. Then the data must be corelated and reviewed as well as analyzed.
Of course this must be done by a volunteer who has yet to come out of the
woodwork.

While you are very willing to negatively criticize I would suggest that you
put your energies to something more in line with constructive comment. A
methodology of how to define the available data, how to present it to the
membership and most of all how to get the necessary work performed.

The Veterinary Committee could use some very energetic volunteers to assist
them in data analysis. Since you seem to be proficient on the use of
computers perhaps you could head up a group to assist in this work. I am
sure our AERC President would be very willing to point you in the correct
direction and offer you the chair of a committee to do the work.

Do I hear you putting your efforts forth to assist the sport in this manner?
