Mayer Saddles [Re: for Erik - Re: mc riding and pies [RE: [ST] Lurker surfaces... educate me, please]]

[Tai Day <tai_day@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mike,

Let me make a small clarification. Rick is the son (one of them any who).
Bill Mayer was the man who pioneered the day-long saddle when he and
Russell were partners. What I liked about Bill was that every single saddle
he made, he made. That cannot be said about a Russell or Corbin, etc. Butt
then that's probably why the earliest ride-in appt for Rick is mid-Sept : -) 

Bill has another son, who also does seats. From discussions with friends
and other mailing lists, Rick is the most responsive to customers. 

Here's Rick url and contact info. I'll get some pictures and report back to
the list.
