[endurance] Titanium shoes

I would love to try them, but apparently my farrier has yet
to get his paws on any. The extra cost is OK with me because
they can be reset. We did borium in the back last year and
those shoes were reset from June through Dec... did a 30 and
a 50 on them. No wear. The titaniums are supposed to be
just as tough without the added 'point height' of borium.
They are supposed to be easy to work once you get the hang
of them (if you are a farrier) and my theory is that if
the forge is set to the right temperature, you can get
them in custom colors. ;-)

A year later we have pretty much given up ever getting any.
