Rather than a horse, this picture shows two men riding in an early automobile, a reminder that the motorcar was beginning to change travel even as Theodore Roosevelt was known for his love of the saddle. The record gives only the plate number, C9379, and the title names no one, so the riders' identities are not confirmed here. Cars of this era were open, high-set and often temperamental, and most roads were dirt or gravel, which made even a short drive an adventure. The link to Roosevelt comes from the gallery's board, which groups the image with his name, not from the title itself.
