Just a quick one, if you have a sponsor, is it okay to wear a numnah with your sponsors logo etc on a numnah for all of the disciplines?

I am pretty sure that you are not allowed a logo on your numnah, or riders clothing, but that's not to stop you having it on rugs etc. Best way to check would be to ask on the BE forum.

I found the rules too confusing / strict about it on rider clothing so my sponsors just gave me a branded jacket with their big logo across the back that I wear for warming up / walking about in. I think the logo size for saddlecloths is so small they aren't very visible so its not really worth doing.

Thanks, I couldn't really understand whether it was allowed or not on numnahs!

I ride in all three phases with my sponsor's logo but it is only allowed if the logo is registered with BE, and within the size limits stipulated in the rules. There is a cost associated with registering the logo too - not sure how much it is though!

The sponsoring company or individual also has to be a BE member!

Ahh! I'm entered for my first BE on Monday. My numnah's have the logo of the saddle manufacturer on them. Do I need a new numnah!?! Best get shopping!

I have noticed that some riders use quarter markers to get around the saddle cloth rules, as there are no restriction on what your quarter markers are.
