Mea Culpa

Hi guys - I'd like to clear the air a bit regarding the comment I wrote in my last post about western riders.

I intended it to be light-hearted and teasing, but it didn't quite come out that way.

I apologize if I offended anyone.

I understand that what I meant in good fun may be construed as me saying that I don't respect western riders, or that I'm a great western rider. This is not the case, and I am sorry that my poor choice of words could imply so.

I dislike condescending riding stereotypes as much as the next person, and I will be much more careful in the future about what I write.

Sorry. I didn't mean to bite so hard. But sometimes it's the little asides that get to me the most.
I know you don't look down on other styles of riding.

I understand. There's so much crap between disciplines out there that it's easy to get defensive.

I promise I won't fall into making fun anymore.
