Mel and ‘Farley’ at Tevis

2010 was an excellent year for the Farley (TKR Triforta) and Melinda team.  Farley switched from traditional metal shoes to strap-on Renegade® hoof boots mid-way through the 2009 season.

 The 2010 season started with Mel’s and Farley’s first-ever 100-mile completion at 20 Mule Team in Ridgecrest, CA,  and ended with Mel earning her 1000-mile endurance mileage patch at the Patriot’s Day 100-mile ride in Greenville, CA.  

During 2010, Farley earned her “Bronze” level 100 mile certificate, which indicates that she has completed 3-100 mile rides.  With the exception of Tevis, in which Renegade® Pro Comp Glue-Ons were used, the 100-mile rides were completed using Renegade® strap-on hoof boots.  

Melinda and Farley earned a 6th place finish in the Featherweight division West Region point standings and continue to train and compete in Renegade® hoof boots.
