Dogs on Bikes
Is that "a thing"?
Regional correspondence suggests "yes", hereabouts

Re: Dogs on Bikes
Rich and Shona at Keep Pedalling take their 'Olive' on the bikes a lot. I think she did the Badger Divide earlier this year.
May the bridges you burn light your way

Can't make out the wording on the sign on the gatepost.
Re: Dogs on Bikes
Not uncommon to see a small dog in a basket (no, not like chicken in the basket; I know we're backward around here but...) or in a trailer around here in the Forest of Dean.
John Climber takes Archie out I believe now that he's getting on a bit (I'll leave you to interpret whether that means John or Archie... )

We go out into the hills to lose ourselves, not to get lost. You are only lost if you need to be somewhere else and if you really need to be somewhere else then you're probably in the wrong place to begin with.
Re: Dogs on Bikes
Just so happened that I watched this very interesting film yesterday on YouTube which quite early on features a fellow rider called John and his dog. Nice seeing them in action and you soon realise that John is one fit rider. Check out his bike and how heavy it must be and then add the dog in the basket....

Re: Dogs on Bikes
If I ever get this house sorted I really want to get a Visla. Hopefully can come with me on shorter trips.
Re: Dogs on Bikes
John and Mira!! Been following them on Instagram for ages and live what they do and where they go. They did a huge chunk of Continental Divide. He's done most if not all of the Baja route with Mirs as well. Seems Dog Packing is a thing!Richpips wrote: βFri Nov 05, 2021 5:15 pmMira - https://www.instagram.com/mira_la_perra/?hl=enTeaman wrote: βFri Nov 05, 2021 5:08 pm Just so happened that I watched this very interesting film yesterday on YouTube which quite early on features a fellow rider called John and his dog.

If at first you don't succeed you're running about average!

Re: Dogs on Bikes
The CWB this year looks like it will feature a few small furry friends. (No, not Reg, he's stuck at home.) My little Milly goes quite well in the shopping basket I got off Tesco last year though off road in the cold might prove a bit more challenging than nipping down the shops or park. We'll be right. Yes for dogpacking.
I'm just going outside ...

Don't forget about Josh Kato and his poodle Winston! He rides with Winston all the time and refers to him as his coach!
