Although there are a lot of trails around the house for me to ride, most of them are mountainous and extremely arduous. There are numerous, easier trails along the river where a guy can get up a good head of steam.  Those trails, however, are not so accessible for dogs unless you pack up the bike and dog in the car. There’s just too much traffic between the house and the river for us both if she runs.

Now, it’s no problem to take SaTang running along the river. I bought a nice rack this weekend and the grocery store we frequent gave me a shopping basket which I strapped on with a multitude of cable ties. She was a little scared at first, but once we got a few blocks she decided it wasn’t so scary. Then, once we got to some places along the river where she could run along side me she was really happy.

So, now I can ride to our favorite spots and she can run when we get there, too.
