The International collaboration of Event Riders Associations from the UK, France and Germany will evolve as each of the nations establishes their own working Rider Association. As each national organisation becomes a functional entity they will in turn be invited to put forward members to join an International Board.
The Board
The International ERA Board has the aim of bringing together common national themes as a single International voice. It also has the responsibility of making sure information from International bodies is relayed down to National level in a clearly understood and expedient manner.
