Video of My Race Mule

I was gonna buy you a gold tooth, but you don't never smile



While Movement has been garnering most of the attention of late, I also own a small piece of a slow mule. RTR Lost in the Fog, named after the NorCal champion sprinter, lacks his namesake's zip, but never fails to entertain. Here's some video of his last outing. Most will find the Soundtrack--the Junior Wells classic Galloping Horses A Lazy Mule--more enjoyable than vid of a mule walking in a circle and finishing the race in a photo for last. It's still worth a play if you have sound, though.

Mule Racing Season Nears


The traditional kickoff to mule racing season is the Winnemucca meet in north central Nevada and is scheduled for the first three days of June this year. Last year press from around the globe descended on Winnemucca do cover the cloned mules as they battled it out on track. This year may eve be more exciting for me, as I am a first time race mule owner. Pictured above is RTR Lost in the Fog, who's sire is suspected of siring champion mule Black Ruby. Officially Black Ruby's sire is unknown. RTR Fog has been burning up the track in qualifying heats, posting the fasted times of lot so far. In Nevada we'll see if his morning talent transfers to afternoon success.
