A strap is tied around the belly. The horse is trying to throw it off. You'll notice at the end of the run a cowboy removes it. Must have a quick release.

I know it appeared Insufficient Funds did not given he thinks it harms horses more than slapping them.

He's probably one of those folks who think that the Flanking Strap goes around the genitals...

Massive police escort out of downtown on Bow Trail this morning around 8:45.

Wonder what the heck that was. Was there somebody pretty important at the Stampede yesterday?

I told them I was going to the grounds but changed my mind at the last minute.

Pope's flying into Edmonton.

Edit: I guess based on the post below they were training to go up to YEG and assist.

Maybe they were making way for trucks and equipment to get out of town. I saw a lot of police on motorcycles going south on Deerfoot this morning blocking all of the on-ramps up to Memorial Drive.

I also once did escort “training” and it involved the police. Very different from what’s being described here tho. All I ended up with was a night in lockup and am still out my $500.

Is the Pope coming to Calgary? Trying to imagine how well the Pope mobile doing 100 in the left lane of the QE2 is going to go.
