On your bike.

I’ve wanted this for some time – try taking Bingley for a run, with me on the bike. It’s not that I’m lazy, but I certainly can’t sustain the effort of running with him, although I do keep trying.

So today, I got the bike out (having replaced a perished inner-tube), put Bingley on a short leash, and we gave it a go.

I do admit that it’s not probably the safest thing to do – once false move, and I could easily mow him down, plus he’s not the brightest dog – road wise… Anyway we gave it a try.

He absolutely loved it, he just kept running, almost pulling me along, with a huge smile on his face (you can see it if you know what to look for). I’m hoping we can make it a regular thing, although it will have to be early morning, as now daylight saving has ended, it’s always dark by the time I get home.
