20th Anniversary of the Eye Reckon Freedom Ride

It’s been 20 years since the Eye Reckon Freedom Ride left Bandera to blaze a historic trail to Calgary, Canada. To commemorate the ride, founding rider, Mary Schenk, wrote an account of their many adventures – good and bad – in her book, Riders of the Storm: The True Story of the Eye Reckon Freedom Ride, under her nom de plume, Mary Allyce. Mary rode the entire way with her long-time partner, the late Hoot Gibson. She will honor the anniversary and Hoot’s life at the Frontier Times Museum on Saturday, January 20th by sharing her memories.
