Only the best of the best ride this 100-mile trail between Lake Tahoe and Auburn, California – and even then, only half see the finish line.Two hundred horsemen thunder down the California trail, riding by the light of an August moon. The site of them would invoke images of Hidalgo or The Man from Snowy River, if it weren’t for the lycra riding pants, high-tailed Arabians and endurance saddles. But don’t be fooled, this isn’t your little sister’s dressage competition. It’s the Tevis Cup, also known as the Western States Trail Ride, backcountry’s greatest endurance race.
