Dear Eric, North American Long Rider Andi Mills purchased a Steele Mountaineer trail saddle. She then used it to ride across the United States. Afterwards she praised it
to other Long Riders.
A young journalist named Filipe Leite is now preparing to make the first
equestrian journey from Canada to his home in Brazil. To assist Filipe, Andi
has agreed to allow him the long term loan of her prized Steele trail saddle.
The trail saddle is currently at Andi’s home in North Carolina. However, before Andi and Filipe arrange to have it shipped to Canada, I suggested that your company be invited to check the saddle, so as to confirm that it is ready to undertake such a long and difficult journey.
Meanwhile, allow me to conclude by saying that two other equestrian
explorers are currently preparing to make a 1500 mile trail ride across
Kazakhstan. As they too will need saddles for that very difficult journey, I
will suggest they consider the option chosen by Andi and Filipe, and use a
Steele trail saddle when they cross Central Asia.
In closing, many thanks, Eric, for your assistance in helping Filipe
undertake this vitally important journey.
Best wishes,
CuChullaine O’Reilly FRGS November 14, 2012
