I bought the domain name SideSaddleRider.Com some years ago, as a gift for my side-saddle friends. The idea was that I could give them side-saddle email addresses for Christmas! It seemed a shame not to do something with the web space ...so....the SideSaddleRider site was born, to help me share my passion with side-saddle around the world.

NEW! - American Sidesaddle Association

Fantastic News!

The American Sidesaddle Association was recently formed to serve as a coalition of the regional groups.  The mission of ASA is to preserve the art of riding aside, foster community and exchange of information amongst sidesaddle riders, promote and support the efforts of regional sidesaddle groups and
serve as a resource to sidesaddle enthusiasts throughout the
United States
by archiving and disseminating information which should never be lost.  ASA aims to be an all-inclusive group:  welcoming riders of all disciplines to come together for friendship and camaraderie as well as fun. 

The ASA will hold a Launch Party on May 1, 2008

 at 8:30 PM at Barn N at the Kentucky State Fairgrounds

 in Louisville, KY.

  Everyone’s invited to attend and get to know ASA.

Unfortunately, I found this morning that my web space with CrazyHostGuy was suspended. I'd been using this company happily for years (with several other of my sites), but I'm sorry to say that their customer service has steadily got worse. After almost a month of appalling customer service from them I tried to get in touch with their CEO. Next thing I know, they had suspended the side-saddle site and lost all of the pictures and information that I had worked so hard to share! There was No warning and No contact at all about this....my problems had been regarding another site, but as soon as I commented on their recent service this site was suspended.  I am not impressed!

But hey, ho, <grin> things usually work out for the best reasons, even if we don't see it that way at the time, and maybe this and the move to new web hosts (www.P4host.com) will mean that I finally get the side-saddle site finished!

 

So far, I can wholeheartedly recommend P4host! Let's hope they keep up their excellent service!     

I promise I will add pictures, info and links asap! So please keep trying the site ;-)

UPDATE- Jan 09, 2008

Uh oh...After weeks of trying to get their "technical help" guys to sort out a simple problem with my email...I've given up! I have not been able to access business email for weeks, therefore I've moved 2 of my other accounts to another Host. I'll keep you informed, but as of now, I can not recommend P4 host anymore, which is a shame, as I've been happy with them for the past year or so. This site is still hosted by P4Host as I've just renewed the subscription. Ha.  Never mind, eh?
