Noel. with all due respect, I take exception to the following statement "It is a great way, I understand to learn to go four-in-hand, at half the cost!" It is easier to drive a four in hand than it is to drive a tandem. The 4's leaders have company and support, while the tandem leader is out there all by itself. And if you want REAL excitement, drive a PONY tandem! They are big enough to get you in trouble and waaay quicker than horses! <VBG> Tongue in cheek, of course, but I have to challenge anyone who says I am driving poor man's 4 up. Don't need 4 to get the big adrenalin rush! <LOL> Jay E Hubert Coffing Oaks Welsh Ponies Galt, CA Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, because you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup. And I STILL drive too fast to worry about cholesterol! _________________________________________________________ To Unsubscribe, change to Digest or Vacation mode go to: http://www.drivingpairs.com/dpmem.shtml `````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
