Pic 09 ... Richard Batchelor and horse ( Shadow ) at

Gladys City event in 1984. I think I was the

first Pony Express rider to use radio communications.

Shadow wasn't too thrilled about it though. Notice

that I wore the same old telegraph operator

clothing every year. And as the years went by,

my code speed jumped from 8 words per minute

up to 10 words per minute in only 6 years.
