Description

Leonard “Len” Carter is the rodeo world’s most inventive trick rider, famous for turning ordinary auto parts into eye‑catching stunt gear. When the annual Cowtown roundup rolls around, he’s determined to out‑shine a field of bored competitors with his latest invention—the mysterious “Bar Act.” As the crowd gathers, Len’s daring feats—riding on an eyebrow, juggling rope while perched on a galloping horse—push the limits of what a cowboy can do, drawing equal parts awe and suspicion from fellow riders.

Amid the dust‑filled arena, Len must juggle his relentless creativity with the practical dangers of a fiercely competitive show. Rivals plot to catch him in the act, while he relies on a keen, almost sixth‑sense intuition to stay one step ahead. Through humor, high‑octane stunts, and a dash of frontier ingenuity, the story captures the raw energy of early rodeo life and the spark of a man who refuses to let tradition hold him back.

About the author

BL

Bud La Mar

Western tales of rodeo grit, showmanship, and cowboy rivalry are at the heart of this little-known pulp-era writer’s work. The surviving record is slim, but the stories linked to this name still carry the fast pace and rough-edged charm of 1920s magazine fiction.
