Anyone want to help out / heads up for horses in Arcadia
Hello Leo. I am a RINEMBA member and I was contacted by organizers of a 50mile Horse endurance race being held next Saturday Sept 29th (see link below) in Arcadia.
They are associated with New England Arabian Trail Organization (http://www.orgsites.com/ct/neato/). Jeff and Mary Ann Gardner are the organizers and are Cced in this email.
They are looking for mountain bike riders to verify course markings the morning of the ride. The course would be broken into smaller sections and course maps would be provided. They historically have had issues with markings being altered or removed.
Perhaps you could place a call-to-arms message in this week???s NEMBA news letter? I am sure NEATO could use any help they can muster. It might also be good to let Arcadia riders know that there will be a 50+ horse race going on this weekend. Sound like these guys are flying out there with lead racers finishing in 4 hours.
Best regards, Dan Clavette
