2 years ago I bought an Arab because I was fascinated with the idea of
endurance riding. I don't seem to have a place to train or the time to do
it. But since I recently joined this list my fire has been fueled a little.
My horse is 15.3 hands and I am a heavyweight at 6'2" and 232 pounds.
I have some questions:
1) My horse is a grandson of Aladdinn B and a great grandson of Bask B.
The people that sold him to me told me this expecting me to be impressed. I
never heard of them, has anyone else? are any of my horses relative being
used in endurance? I bought him cause he looked big enough to hold me and my
vet agreed. (what does the B after thier names mean? (not boy I hope!))
2) I live near Flint, Mi, I have joined UMECRA and some other club, but the
rides are many hours away and I have never been to one. Does anybody do
anything more local on a training basis that may be interested in helping out
with training advice and suggested riding locations.
Thanks!
