another Matthew Mackay-Smith story for the collection

["Michael Maul" <Michael.Maul@nsc.com>]

In 1998 - I crewed for a team at Tevis and posted this story about 
Matthew.  He does have a dry sense of humor...

*************

Last year when I was crewing at Tevis - I was at Forest Hill
waiting for our horses and riders to come in and was
talking to this "crusty older guy" sitting next to me who was
crewing for another person.  To make conversation - I asked 
about the relative difficulty of OD and Tevis.  He said that he 
had done both and thought OD was the more difficult depending on 
the conditions. I figured this was a long time ago.

I didn't have any idea who he was and not until later in the 
day did I figure out who this "crusty older guy" was.  Turned
out to be Matthew Mackay-Smith who had won both of the events
in 1995 on the same horse.
