ER Episode 51: USEA 2009 Convention

By John on November 24, 2009 5:49 PM, Filed Under
Eventing Nation is going to the USEA convention!  While I have technically been banned from USEA gatherings of more than 30 people after that incident at the '03 Area 7 convention with the karaoke machine and Baby's Got Back, I sent in my registration under the name William Fox-Pitt, so I think I should get past security.  Look forward to copious amounts of ridiculous commentary, inside information, and much more.  Check out HRN's preview.
Episode 51 
In this special episode Jo Whitehouse, CEO of the United States Eventing Association, fills us in on the exciting plans for the USEA 2009 Convention. It is sure to be a thrilling event celebrating the USEA's 50th Anniversary. Listen in... Eventing Radio Episode 51 - Special: USEA Annual Convention Preview:

Tik Maynard: Working Student Journalist

By John on November 23, 2009 5:42 PM, Filed Under
The Chronicle has a very interesting article posted by Tik Maynard.  Tik spent the last year traveling to different working student positions in dressage, eventing, and show jumping, and wrote extensively about his experiences.  His latest venture was with Ian Miller for one day before getting fired for, well, writing about his experiences.  Read about it at the Chronicle.  Check out Tik's site for writings about the rest of his working student adventures.  

As an aside, I met Ian Miller at the Royal Canadian Winter Fair when I was 10, after sneaking back into the barns for his autograph.  He was incredibly nice, and I still have the autographed poster.

Emma Winter on Stable Scoop

Emma Winter talks about her frenetic life in eventing and the tragic loss of Kingpin at Rolex on this week's Stable Scoop Radio Show.  Great job again by our friends at the HRN.  Click here to listen.

On an unrelated note, I just read that New Jersey has more horses per square mile than any other state.  Add that to bad roads and drivers that honk.  But, all kidding aside, New Jersey is a great horse state.

Eventing Radio Episode 50: Michael and Nathalie Pollard

By John on November 19, 2009 11:58 AM, Filed Under
This is a great listen.  I am happy for people get to know Michael and Nathalie better; they are one of my very favorite couples in eventing, and really wonderful people.  Michael destroyed me and Jon Holling at Tiger Woods PGA Tour, for the Xbox, one year at Poplar.  I think it was his first time playing and he had something like 3 hole-in-ones, so I still carry a bit of a grudge.  The big announcement: Nathalie is pregnant with twins!  Nathalie was a training list rider a few years ago, and pretty much always gets 9's on rider position in dressage, which is just unfair.  She built Icarus and then passed the horse to Michael when they had their first child.  After taking a brief break to focus on other areas of life, I am so happy to see Michael and Nathalie wanting to get back to major competitive eventing.  Look out people.
