Re: Cavalry Riding

[Kenzie_Kelly@spc.com]

This subject of solo or cavalry riding really interests me.  I didn't
even realize there was such a division.  Since I will be riding
crewless most if not all of the time, I'm glad to hear that so many
people are doing it successfully.

     Some questions:  What, exactly, are the rules of this division?  What
     are you allowed/not allowed to carry?  What do those of you who have
     done this deem essential to have on your person, and on the horse?

     For those of you who often ride crewless, what do you consider
     essential to take on you and the horse?  How do you get the
     nonessential, but good to have things to the next vet check?  What are
     the "rules" of riding crewless - basic politeness aside - is it okay
     to ask another crew to help carry your things?  I guess I'm really not
     sure about the etiquette of ride camp, even after riding the faqs I'm
     still not sure about the specifics of do's and don'ts.

     For those of you in the Southeast, what are the rides you would say
     are good for a beginner (horse & rider) riding crewless?  Especially
     those in the MS, AL, GA, TN area.  They would, of course, have to be
     rides offering LD.
