[RC] old endurance races - Jonni Jewell - Linda B. Merims

Jonni Jewell said:


While up at Tevis, we went shopping at the antique stores.
A magazine caught my eye. It is a copy of "The West; true
stories of the old west", April, 1968. One of the stories is
titled:  "The fabulous cowboy race". Of course,
the magazine was a must have item. The brief rundown of
the story is the race was 900 miles, from Chadron Nebraska
to Buffalo Bill Cody's exhibit at the World's fair in
Chicago, 1893...


This is the race that CuChullaine O'Reilly has substantiated
as being factual.

Basha O'Reilly sent me a copy of the write-up the O'Reilly
did on the race (the one I was complaining wasn't
foot-noted :-).  Unfortunately, I can't really forward it to
Ridecamp because that would be a copyright violation, and
I can't find it anywhere on www.thelongridersguild.com
