I took Niko out beside the bike today just to see how he would do up and down the driveway. First of all: I'm WAY more out of shape than I thought. Second: I am totally having hubs help measure him for a harness tonight! I can't WAIT for slightly warmer spring weather, and for the frost to get out of the ground and the trail behind our house to firm up!

In the beginning, he kept wanting to run out in front of me, but when he ran out of leash and felt a tug on his collar he stopped in his tracks. And I almost ran him over. After that he figured out to stay beside me, or up even with the front wheel. We did 4 trips up and down part of the driveway (it's a quarter of a mile driveway) and I didn't want to over-do it for me OR him, so we came back into the house. He's been lying next to the couch asleep for an hour now.

So, now I have a question. Should I get an 8ft or 10ft skijor line, or the 6ft scooter line from alpine outfitters? 6ft seems short for reaction time for ME in the event that he stops suddenly, or veers off-course.

We started biking with Isi about two weeks ago, on days when I do a workout other than run with her (some nerve I have, huh?) We are hooked as well, if only because it's a lot of bang for your buck in terms of time for husky exercise I can't wait to get a longer line and try on the trails. She pulled me (as in, I didn't pedal at all) for about 1/4 mile, then ran beside me after she got that initial energy out of her system. She goes completely crazy when she sees one of us get out the bike!

Haha that's cute I'm really looking forward to wearing him out on the hill I live on. He can help me get up it and then we can glide down.

wooo looks likes your having fun!! It is addicting huh?!

WOOOOOOOOOO Happy Brithday ME !



I'm going to start training storm first so he can lead the way when it's time for Atka to get out front !

sweet!!!!!!!
