NC HorseNews Product Review....

May 6, 2006

Since I ride with a bareback pad and tend to ride for a long period of time, I need to use a pad on long rides that keep me off my horses’ spine. Most pads compress to the point that it ends up hurting the spine after a long period of time, but the Equipedic has the perfect compression and temperature control. Of all the ones I have tried, the Equipedic pad is by far the best for protecting my horse’s back..

Horseman heads to Texas on EquiPedic saddle pad....

January 14, 2003

Perhaps hoping to appeal to the president horseman to horseman, Lawrence "Doc" Mishler is riding from Montana to Crawford, Texas, on behalf of starving children and world peace. After riding 1,500 miles on 2 one inch pads, Doc switched to an EquiPedic saddle pad. Three days later, Doc called us and said, "This pad is the ultimate. For the first time in 1,500 miles my horse's back is rising up into the saddle. I'm only sorry I didn't get one for my pack horse."

We hope to report more on Doc's travels to Crawford, Texas, so check back frequently to see what he's up to and who he's met along the way.

If you want to talk to Doc directly, email him at:

Horseman inspired by Bread for the Journey....

December 23, 2002

Lawrence "Doc" Mishler was inspired to rideng from Choteau, Montana to Crawford, Texas, on behalf of starving children and world peace. After being diagnosed with cancer, Doc heard Bread for the Journey founder Wayne Muller speak at a Michigan college and read his book, How Then Shall We Live? Doc gave up most of his possesions, saddled his horse, Chief Spirit, loaded up his pack mare, and began a spiritual and physical journey of thousands of miles with his dog Czar Bear.

We hope to report more on Doc's travels in support of Bread for the Journey, so check back frequently to see what he's up to and who he's met along the way.

If you want to talk to Doc directly, email him at doc_mish@hotmail.com.
