Horsing Around


Yes, I have been browsing around on ebay again this afternoon.  I happened upon this photo of Ringo on a horse that has some information that was new to me.  I tend to think that I know just about everything about the Beatles 1966 North American tour, and yet here is something that I knew absolutely nothing about!

According to the information taken from the ebay auction,this is a photograph showing Beatles drummer Ringo Star with band road manager Eric Storey riding at Pebble Beach. 
The day after the Beatles played their final public show at Candlestick Park in 1966, Ringo Starr and a few friends went trail riding at the Pebble Beach Equestrian Center.

The photo comes from the Pebble Beach Heritage Collection.  I have no doubt that it shows Ringo on a horse in Pebble Beach.  And looking at his length of hair, 1966 does seem to be the correct timeframe.    

However after the comments of others, it has been determined that this photo was taken when George and Ringo were in California in 1968.  :)
