The Black Heritage Riders are going strong as Miles Dean and Sankofa along with Reggie Gough make their way on a journey riding horseback from New York to LA! Miles Dean, executive director of the New Jersey-based non-profit organization set out on a 6,000-mile trek from New York to California in September. The 58-year old elementary school teacher is on a mission to educate people about African-American contributions and achievements. Dean tries to average about 30 miles each day he is on the road and he hopes to reach California by February, which is Black History Month. Hoof Care Practitioner Carrie Christiansen of Browns Mills, NJ provided Miles horses with a good trim, boots and education on booting. Dean's horse sports Old Mac G2's in the front and Easyboot Epics behind, all with Comfort Pads.
