Bronc riding toward the rigging handle, spurring at each jump in rhythm with the motion of the horse. Bareback bronc riding began to develop as a professional rodeo sporting event around 1900. The riding equipment used during that era varied. In some cases, the rider simply held onto the horse's mane, called a mane-hold. Others held a loose or twisted rope tied around the horse's girth, and other methods involved using multiple handhold leather riggings based on a surcingle. In the early 1920s, when the old rodeo rules allowing two handed riding were being phased out and replaced with the newer rule
Matroid girth oracle, it is impossible to find the girth using a subexponential number of matroid queries. Similarly, for a real linear matroid of rank , with elements, described by an oracle that gives the orientation of any -tuple of elements, it requires formula_1 oracle queries to determine the girth. Computations using a girth oracle (an oracle that reports the smallest dependent subset of a given set of elements) have also been considered. Matroid girth In matroid theory, a mathematical discipline, the girth of a matroid is the size of its smallest circuit or dependent set. The cogirth of a matroid is
