"What the Horse Sees" Poster

In the interst of education, the Back Country Horsemen of Idaho developed a poster depicting what equines see when they encounter a silent, fast moving bike and rider. It tells the story of a basic fear equines have of predator animals and why, if caught unaware, they react to a biker's presence.

All trail users must work at sharing multiple use trails so that no single group will be shut out of an area. It is imperative that user groups work together to educate the public and each other about interacting in a positive manner.

This 11"x17" poster is available for download (3.3 MB) as an Adobe pdf which can be printed and distributed to local bikenshops.

'Support the Horse' Colorado License plates

May 14, 2008 was a great day for equus Coloradus—the horses in Colorado—when Governor Bill Ritter signed Senate Bill 178 into a law creating a special license plate honoring the contributions the horse industry makes to the culture and economy of Colorado. The bill was sponsored by Senator Jim Isgar and Representative Marsha Looper, both strong proponents of the state’s agricultural interests.
