Full Description:
Bud Johns invented the sport of Ride & Tie.
From the back cover: "His anecdotal history of the sport's first 14 years - during which it grew from one race to more than 350 annually in the U.S. and abroad - shows why one observer said "If you took the Kentucky Derby and the Boston Marathon to Outward Bound, you'd have yourself a Ride & Tie."...The race involves teams of two humans alternately running and riding a equine teammate over rugged trails that may be 40 or more miles in length. The forerunner of the current interest in ultradistance and multi-discipline sports such as triathlon, Ride & Tie has been called "the toughest game in town," "a thinking athlete's sport," "a sport for masochists" and many other things. It's addicts credit it with creating a lifestyle, a third of it's participants are women and - as a first-time viewer said-"these people don't whine, do they?" |
