On Behalf Of Julie Suhr
In 1976, in honor of our 30th wedding anniversary on June 29th, Bob and I
mounted horses on the front walk of the Nevada State Capitol in Carson City
and rode over the coarse of six days to the front lawn of the state capitol
of California in Sacramento.
We arrived in Sacramento on the 4th of July, our country's bicentennial
birthday. We rode up the lawn to the capitol steps in Sacramento and were
followed by two motorcycle police officers who told us to leave in no
uncertain terms. We did, mission accomplished. So the trail that Karen
mentioned to us is feasible, but probably more obstacles to surmount than we
had in 1976.

[DR] Trail to connect Carson to Sacramento

Taking a horse ride, bike trip or hike from downtown Carson City up to and
around Lake Tahoe and into Sacramento may someday be a smooth and
continuous route connected by a single 200-mile trail.
Carson City is scheduled to be the first local government to officially
endorse a regional agreement to support the Capital to Capital Regional
Trail.
Project officials will ask Carson's Parks and Recreation Commission tonight
for a recommendation to support the $30 million trail project to be
forwarded to the city's Board of Supervisors.
The idea is to increase public access to the Sierra Nevada and the north
fork of the American River, said John Ramirez, Placer County administrator
of parks and grounds.
The proposed regional link will offer transitions from oak forests to river
views, from high country to lake vistas, but it will only be available by
foot, horse or bike.
"We wanted a trail that the general public could hike to see these
spectacular areas," Ramirez said.
The existing trails are designed more for a "world-class athlete" and not
easily traveled by the average person, he said.
Some links of the proposed trail will:
-- Connect the American River Parkway Trail in Sacramento to the Pioneer
Express Trail through the Folsom Lake State Recreation Area, to reach the
Auburn area of Placer County
-- Parallel the north fork of the American River
-- Skirt the Granite Chief Wilderness and pass through the more than 2,000
acres of recently acquired Shallenberger Ridge land near Donner Memorial
State Park
-- Continue through Martis Valley and connect to the Tahoe Rim Trial near
Tahoe City
-- Build new trail from the Tahoe Rim Trail through Kings Canyon to Carson
City
Connecting Carson with the rest of the proposed system and the Tahoe Rim
Trail fits into existing recreation plans for Kings Canyon, said Steve
Kastens, director of parks and recreation for the city. Most of the trail
from the city to the connection to the Tahoe Rim Trail is already in place.
Kings Canyon Road was historically used to go to Lake Tahoe.
"It's pretty much of a natural for us," Kastens said. "We just have to do a
few things to make it a reality here in Carson."
Placer County Supervisor Rex Bloomfield proposed the project more than a
year ago, and the county has secured $1.5 million in grant funding from
California.
Placer County will seek signatures of commitment on a memorandum of
understanding from Washoe, Placer and Sacramento counties and Carson City
then use the document to apply for federal and state funds for the project.
The trail is expected to be completed within 10 years, if Placer County can
get funding and cooperation from the public within a reasonable amount of
time, Ramirez said.
The first phase of the project, which may begin in two years, will include
Carson City's connection to the Tahoe Rim Trail through Kings Canyon at
Spooner Summit.
Part of the plan will be to clear vegetation and level existing trails
along the path so horses, bicyclists and hikers can easily travel them,
Ramirez said.
Sacramento links have already been connected to Auburn, and the project has
gained letters of support from several local governments and agencies.
"There's been a lot of support; now we're after funding," Ramirez said.
If Carson parks and recreation commissioners recommend signing the
agreement with Placer for the project, it will be forwarded to the city's
Board of Supervisors for final approval.

[RC] The LBL Express
On Behalf Of Hickory Ridge Arabians
Hello Everyone,
As new rides become available for the endurance riders there
is always some interest on how the new ride went. To that end,
here is the LBL Express story.
On Wednesday before the ride we transported 3 horses to the LBL
ride site. Two for trail marking and of course JABASK KNIGHT aka
Irene for competition. Bianca Chevalier flew in from Oregon to ride
Irene. She did a teriffic job in taking him around the course and
finished with all A's for the day.
Back to the ride site. On Wednesday the trails were in perfect
condition. Some mud is the very low spots but generally in good
shape. On Thursday it began to cloud over, and by Thursday night we
had some good showers. There went the trail. Friday it did the same
thing with some hard showers. While marking the trail on Friday,
Truman Prevatt, Jim Holland and my husband Jerry Fruth were treated
to a royal soaking by mother nature.
There was a bit of confusion with the electrical fences. Matthew the
LBL Recreation Manager announced at the ride meeting that you could
have the fences, but during the day they would have to be turned off.
With a lot of children in the camp they wanted to be careful not
to shock one of the camp urchins. That seemed to please the riders.
Saturday began with open skies and by 10 am we had a perfect
day going. Sun and a temperature for the day of 71 degrees
made for a great ride day.
By and large the riders took the mud in stride. The mud at LBL
doesn't get deep with heavy rain. The base is a gravel, and stone
base which helps drain the soil. By Sunday afternoon the trail was
beginning to dry.
We had 53 entrants in the 50 and 32 entrants in the 25 mile
limited distance ride. ALL 32 limited distance riders completed
the ride, with an hour to spare, they didn't take six hours! They
were rewarded with a large round of applause at the
awards ceremony for taking such good care of their horses.
Vetting was done by Drs. Duane Barnett, Art King, Otis Schmitt,
and Melinda Poole. Otis was the treatment vet and had a relaxed
day. One horse on the first loop had a muscle pull or light
tie up which was attended to in speedy order because Otis was
posted about 8 miles out on the first loop of the 50 miler. He
was assisted by our ham operator at that location in notifying us
of a need for an ambulance. That was the only horse for the day
that required an ambulance ride back to camp.
As the day moved along all was going well until we had a race off
for the finish line. Two riders were booking it for home, rounded
a curve and found 6 trail riders standing in a mud hole giving
their horses a drink. At that point everyone scattered, but one the
endurance rider ran into a trail rider with each going down in the mud
hole. Both riders were covered in mud and both horses required
some vet attention. The riders are ok, and the horses are on the
mend.
We have been asked back by the Forest Service for next spring(last
weekend of April 2004), and they have asked us if we would like to do
a ride this fall. They had excellent reports from other trail riders
that our riders were very courteous when passing them out on the
trail.
The buffet before the awards cermony was one of the best. The
caterer had a vegetarian lasagna that was first rate. The dinner was
topped off with Mississippi Mud Pie and an array of other desserts.
They said our riders really like Chocolate. They will certainly be
asked back next year.
Special thanks goes to Nancy Gooch, and Jackie Mitchell as timers, Kim
Ruffin, Bobbie Dolchan and Nina Gibson Barnett as scribes, Lori Greco
and Joan Tipton as pulse in. .Thank you to Lori for helping to take
down ribbons on Sunday. Thank you to Truman and Jim for helping mark
the trail, and our crew of three ham operators that kept us informed
of the riders positions during the ride. Thank you to my good friend,
Bianca for designing the LBL logo and helping me with the ride. To
all the other volunteers who just stepped in and helped, you are
appreciated.
A very special thanks to Matthew Edwards of the USFS in helping put
the event together. As a land manager he is the very best. We are
looking forward to working with the land managers at LBL in the
future. They are definitely orientated towards recreation.
Like every place else in the nation they are short on funds for
trail maintenance, so we are going to see what can be done to
help them out.
Thank you to all the riders that attended!!! It was a great ride!!!

BCHC's Public Lands Committee
BCHC's Public Lands Committee - Working for California
The Public Lands Committee (PLC) continues its efforts to keep our mission
in plain view for both ederal and state public land managers.
During 2002, PLC members from BCHC-Sequoia Unit and BCHC-Kern Sierra Unit
provided detailed analyses of the Giant Sequoia Monument Management Plan.
Their work helped our development of comments from the Public Lands
Committee.
PLC Members from BCHC-Caballeros del Sol Unit, BCHC-Borrego Valley Unit and
BCHC-San Diego Unit responded to the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park General
Plan and Draft EIR. That clarified the entire Public Lands Committee's
understanding of issues while developing our comments.
Throughout 2003 we will assist our federal congressional representatives in
developing "Right to Ride" legislation with the goal of solidifying the
historical importance of our western culture by preserving and facilitating
the continued use of pack and saddle stock in wilderness areas.
The Committee will also continue working with state legislative
representatives on California's state park issues.

[RC] Hog Wild day 1 - 50's
On Behalf Of Tammy Robinson
I want to thank everyone that attended this years ride. We thought things
went very well this year. A very BIG "Thank You" to all of my volunteers
this year. We would never be able to ever have this ride if it wasn't for
them.
T he weather was great and the trails ended up in good condition due to
this years rains. Wild Flowers and green grass everywhere. It has taken 4
years now and I do feel that we finally have it down. Every year we learn
something to do it better for next years ride. If you have any in put on
this subject, please feel free to email us. Please don't ask for us to
remove hills. Just can't move mountains yet :)
Any Volunteers, or riders that didn't get their T-Shirts please let us know.
We didn't have any Jr riders in the 50 miler this year so we have decided to
give the 1st Jr. Polar Fleece Blanket to the 1st Jr in the 35 miler. We did
the same on day 2 and you should have seen the smile on that little girls
face!

I want to thank everyone that attended this years ride. We thought things
went very well this year. A very BIG "Thank You" to all of my volunteers
this year. We would never be able to ever have this ride if it wasn't for
them.
T he weather was great and the trails ended up in good condition due to
this years rains. Wild Flowers and green grass everywhere. It has taken 4
years now and I do feel that we finally have it down. Every year we learn
something to do it better for next years ride. If you have any in put on
this subject, please feel free to email us. Please don't ask for us to
remove hills. Just can't move mountains yet :)
Any Volunteers, or riders that didn't get their T-Shirts please let us know.
We didn't have any Jr riders in the 50 miler this year so we have decided to
give the 1st Jr. Polar Fleece Blanket to the 1st Jr in the 35 miler. We did
the same on day 2 and you should have seen the smile on that little girls
face!

[RC] Gastric Ulcer Study
On Behalf Of Michele Roush Shaw
I would like to publickly thank Dr. Barney and Linda Fleming for all their
time and effort in putting together their tour around the country doing
endoscopy on our horses to look for gastric ulcers. It seems to me to be a
bit of a thankless job, and a lot of driving!
Thank you, also, to the people who participated and had their horses scoped.
Kudos to you for wanting to know more about what goes on inside your horses.
I would like to add that there is no shame or embarrassment involved in
learning that your horse has ulcers, and that it should not be construed as
a reflection upon you as a horse manager. The shame should come from
sticking your head in the sand and not wanting to know whether your horse
has ulcers or not.
I would encourage people to take advantage of the opportunity to look at
your horse's stomach, should that opportunity arise. It is better to make
informed decisions.

[RC] Seabiscuit movie starring Shirley Temple
On Behalf Of joan
I just this week watched "Seabiscuit, the movie" (I believe that's
what it's called) on one of the classic movie channels. It stars
Shirley Temple, the love interest of Tim Knowles. It's a great movie
that even shows some actual race footage. Check your cable listings.

visitors to Ireland in mid September.
The Punchestown site, which has recently undergone a major ?20m

IntNewsGroup: European Championships - Ireland 2003
On Behalf Of Lori & Rick Stewart
Note: Date of the event is on or about September 20,2003.
Hello Ian and Everyone,
I think it is a good idea that we receive input from the NF's about the
change in the distance for the European Continential Championships (from a 2
x 100, to a 1 x 160 ). I would personally be in favor of this change but I
am forwarding this message to the Group IV Countries for their input.
If I can be of further service in this matter, or answer any questions that
the federation countries might have, please advise.
