Mentors & Riding Buddies
This page is in progress.
New Endurance members - if you have questions, feel free to contact Aaren Storms at aarenex@haikufarm.net. She's a wonderful resource and has also written Endurance 101: A Gentle Guide to the Sport of Long-Distance Riding - ask her how to get a copy.
The lists below are now generated when someone joins or renews their membership. If you would like to be added to this list (because that option wasn't available as most people did their memberships) let Marlene or Lora know. If you are looking for a Riding Buddy or a Mentor, contact someone below. If you're new and need some help contacting a mentor, we don't have an automatic process for that yet, so please contact Marlene or Lora or our VP for advice. You can also post on the Pacific Northwest Endurance Ride FB pages with what you're looking for - people will jump to help you out.
