As if barrel racing isn’t exciting enough, the organizers of Barrelnanza decided to put a spin on the sport. Competitors in the bareback barrels competition not only rode without saddles, but gave their bits and bridles the night off, turning and burning with only the aid of a halter and lead rope. Rider Stephanie Britt still manages to post some impressive times in this week’s video.
