That is a very rare photo RR indeed. I'm assuming that's Albert Speer to the far right? :D

Like the idea of those big handlebars for steering. Might have to get one for one of the bikes.

Thanks for the research. That guy sure needs to duck when his mount turns his head....

No I'll keep Badger, I think shoeing an elk might be a challenge.

Likely easier to convince Badger to wear a set of antlers. Although he might never forgive you.

Nah, our guys are no fun. Our late mare always wore the Santa hat or the antlers with bells for the Christmas photos. But these guys give me a dirty look when I come in the pen with that stuff.
