Today I went on my first bicycle ride. Well, Tim rode and I ran along beside. For those hounds that don't know, a bicycle is a mechanical device with two round legs that humans sit on power with their own legs. I'm sure you have seen them, maybe you enjoy barking at them. It is amazing. You know how humans plod along at a snail's pace and you have to be really patient with them on a walk, well the same legs can allow them to go very fast when on a bicycle.
I often see Tim going out on his bike so I was very excited when he took me along today. I had to concentrate to go at the right speed in the right place and so did Tim. I also had to be good and not go running after bush turkeys and barking dogs behind fences. Tim has been riding bicycles his whole life, he is 4 and a half in dog years, so he has good skills. At the end we were both hot, it is a cloudy, muggy day here. It was great fun and a really good workout.
The photo is of me staking out the kitchen waiting for something good. They don't let me in the kitchen. Does that sound fair to you?

Hi Ruby,
Sorry I haven't had a chance to visit for a few days!
Hey - I'm not allowed in the kitchen either!! My humans trained me when I was a puppy because they knew I'd grow up really tall and they didn't want me counter-surfing! :)
But that's OK - I'm used to it and what you don't know, you don't miss!
Hey - that bicycle thing sounds cool! My human, Paul, has one too although he's never taken me along for a ride - see, us Danes don't have much stamina...think a nice plodding walk is much more my thing! (well, unless I'm playing and chasing friends, of course!)
