(Revised March 25, 2005)

Ride insurance is handled automatically when your ride is sanctioned at no cost to ride management. The office forwards your ride information directly to Equisure, Inc. If you require additional certificates of insurance for your ride, contact Equisure directly at (800) 752-2472, or fax (303) 614-6967. A form is enclosed for your use in obtaining the required certificates.

Introductory rides of less than 25 miles and educational clinics held in conjunction with your AERC sanctioned rides are covered by AERC’s insurance only if noted on your application at the time of sanctioning. To insure coverage of your intro ride and/or clinic, a few other rules also apply – a day member fee of $1.00 per rider or participant must be collected from individuals that are not current AERC members and participate in the clinic or intro ride, and it is necessary to provide AERC with the names and addresses of those day members. Forward the contact information to the AERC Office along with your ride results.

A form entitled "AERC Day Member Contact Information" is enclosed for your use in recording the contact data for all day members attending your ride, whether riding a limited distance, endurance distance, or participating in a clinic or introductory ride.

All AERC sanctioned rides must use an AERC approved rider card for the control veterinarian(s) to record the results of their examinations. We have included two different rider cards for you – choose the one that works best for your ride.

Post-Ride RIDER Survey: Please make copies for your riders. Their input will be forwarded to the Veterinary Committee Chairman.

Please direct additional questions to the office (866) 271-2372.
