The need for this group became clear during the recent rash of crest release, stirrups-too-long, neck-leaning, ranting, raving, and good-ole-days nostalgia on the boards. We need to focus our energy instead of just griping about the truly frightening turn that American showring riders have taken! Join up today- the life you save may be your own!

Let’s call to order our first meeting and set up our motto and bylaws…
[I]I hereby bring to order the first official meeting of BEQS “Big Eq Sucks”. On the table are the bylaws which need to be ratified. I’ll start (please add as appropriate):
Please add other bylaws, everyone!
“Oh Mickey you’re so fine, you’re so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey! Hey Mickey!”
I don’t do the hunter wiggle but my butt tends to slosh off my saddle now and then. That seems to be an age thing. I already ride pretty short so I may have that covered.
I pledge to free my next horse from the oppression of odd nosebands and sore gums that result from getting jabbed in the mouth all day.
I pledge that my elbows will never point at the judge as I jump.
You said you breed Norwich Terriers. I presume that you sell them also. If I can sell my hubby on the breed I’d like to find out more. Natty Dread is adorable. Are Norwich’s ok with energetic kids and neurotic (but dog lovin’) moms?
#4 I hearby pledge to ride outside of an arena at least everyonce in a while and to consider doing some jumping over natural terrain.

HERE, HERE!!! I’ll bring the beer just let me know when the first “Official” meeting will be. Not next weekend tho, got a big important Terrier show to go to. But I will fly anywhere (yeah right).
Can I join? I promise to do all those pledges!
I do ride my horse tiwce a week on trails and jump logs.
I’m now riding without stirrups to build up my legs, stomach and back (I was off for 3 months due to a car wreck…my back will only be 85%…)
I’m making my trainer do lunge lesson where I can ride without stirrups and reins and do excerises to improve my balance and confindance.
I only jump small jumps to teach my horse not to rush. Um… this is great!
http://www.dmtc.com/dmtc98/Pedigree/ you can look up you Thoroughbred’s Pedigree with photos 9 Genrations back!
Men come and go, but my horse will always love me!
#5 I promise to neither longe my horse to exhaustion nor to subject him to draw reins on the day of the big show and to accept that, yes, he is just plain crazy.
#6 I will not accept the presence of TS breeches alone as a sign of legitimacy.
What Terrier show are you going to ???

Oh…the hunter wiggle? I always ask if I wiggle my butt like that, but Langshaw just looks at me weird…

Junior Clique!
I promise not to attach a standing martingale so tight that the horses chin is against his chest. Also pledge to TRY to ride without that martingale at least once a week (even if only in the indoor).

Montgomery… Its in Pa. I breed Norwich and my baby, “Keleven’s Natty Dread”, is having her big debut. She may or may not be finished by then…she has 3 huge shows this weekend in Michigan. So wish me/her luck. I kinda dig this whole dog show thang.
Wait…what about those riders that do that wiggle, swingy, thing with their butts at the canter. Ya know they get kinda cock-eyed and then their behinds start kinda rocking side ways. What would that be called?
What kind of terrier is she…is that a Cairn terrier?

Very popular in front of a select few male judges during the early '80s
I can do it , but usually only as a joke. My old back does not move as well as it used to- my bacside however, jiggles just fine on its own,and I do not find that too funny
She’s a Norwich Terrier. She is the sweetest, cutest, best dog I have ever had. She is away right now campaigning for her Championship. As soon as she is done she is coming home to hang out in the barn, kill meesies, and eventually have babies.
How about Depends Wearing Following Hands Association?
I need to make a run to the CVS to pick up a pack for myself, anyone else need some?
DEPENDable joliemom
i really wish that the Big Eq was about riding effectively, because when your ride correctly you ride beautifully.
Now that is a dog! One of the cutest things I’ve ever seen.
How old is she in the picture?
