In terms of bikes, they’re so hi-tech now we have no idea what’s good. But we both doubt the need for titanium frames with shock absorbers, and 4k price tags. And here’s our final thought – tandem??
Even without dogs, in our house we call them divorcycles. With dogs, it’d be a bloodbath! I’ve seen people mountain biking on them, and I think they’re crazy. That gasp in the forest is me, staring. Lumpy terrain and two bodies shifting around . . . nope.
Then again, if anyone could train two Beagles to tandem mountain bike, it’s you two. But, I’d suggest stacking the odds more in you favor and going in pairs. 4 wheels good! No offense Kirby.
I would have thought that there aren’t that many people in our situation where your dog loves to play with others but can’t be trusted to stay close
Check out She does a lot of biking and bikejoring with her sled dog team in the Yukon. She might have some tips!
And then there’s those pesky Beagle types to think about. I’ve tried running with both of them tied to my canicross belt and they can never resist having a play fight when I least expect it. It’s one thing dragging two wrestling dogs behind you when you’re on foot, but on a tandem?
