Hi, I have been lurking for some time now and thought I had better say hello. I guess I am a 'mature rider' at 32??? :D
I have a Welsh Sec D who is 9 years old and we have just started to do low level endurance this year and loving it! :)

Welcome, all of you!
Love the name, Pottamus! And yes, 32 counts as 'mature' if only in years ;)

Welcome Potamus.. :D I'm fairly new too..
You may need to put the endurance plans on hold temporarily to allow for increased internet time I can certainly vouch for the addictive qualities of this board...LOL

Hello Pottamus
I guess at 32 you are rather past the mature stage, more into living fossil territory, given that the mature riders site is mostly populated by legions of ancients who are in their teens or twenties .
But don't worry, there are a few of on this site who actually qualify for the title MR, are stalwart supporters of the growing old disgracefully philosophy, and are always happy to welcome youngtsers like you in.
