Announcing the Escape Collective Members' Saddle Lending Library

What is this?

There was some discussion over at the Escape Collective Members’ Secret Clubhouse and we decided that, since so many of us have saddles we aren’t using, it would be a good idea to turn them into a collective lending library.

There’s a Google Form where you can enter information on a saddle you want to make available to lend, and a Google spreadsheet where you can browse the saddles that are available. If you want to borrow a saddle, contact its owner directly.

Boring legalese

Any loans resulting from the use of this spreadsheet are matters strictly between the lender and borrower, and any disagreements arising from a loan are to be worked out between the two of them. I accept no responsibility for loans that turn out badly for any reason.

Furthermore, Escape Collective, its employees, officers, heirs, and assigns have nothing whatsoever to do with this lending library, so don’t even think of bringing them into it.

In short: we’re just trying to do something cool here. Be cool.

Amazing idea!

Bumping this. There are currently 5 saddles listed. I know y’all have more out there.

Yes!

I’ve been thinking about this as an idea for over a decade, but never quite could put together how to execute it.

Added the pile of saddles I have sitting around from prior fit experiments.

quick admin question, can we quietly dm someone to fix typos (e.g. 144 instead of 143mm width)? is that you @adamrice?

If you can’t edit it directly, then yes, I can make the change.
