Wayne McLennan - Australia's most colourful and capable Cowboy

Described as one of Australia's most "colourful and capable Men around the cowboy chutes". Sent to Alice Springs convent at the age of 5, Wayne talks about how the days in the convent as a young child shaped some of the characteristics he has today and carried through his youth around the rodeo scene and bars. "If you poke a dog with a stick long enough it will eventually bite ya" - Wayne McLennan Two (2) of Wayne's brothers were the last known diagnoses of Polio here in Australia. Saddling up on his first Bronc a little younger than 15 years of age, Wayne got the itch for the saddle. Setting off to Drove Cattle a few short years later after deciding school wasn't for him, he talks about some of the hardest days on the road. From riding Saddle Broncs to Droving in his youth, winning a Cannings Down title and an urge for a bar fight, we feel we've only just gotten a glimpse on Wayne's life lived From the Saddle.
