Jintel Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Very cool clip; I can't wait until my two get older! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeiperSky7 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Anne, Brilliant Clip Tia looks like she is having great fun there ! My son Alex is pestering for another bike to add to his collection of two BMX bikes - I'm keen that his third one might be suitable for sharing and Bikejoring I'm sure you have posted about the Bikejring attachment before - where was it you bought it from please ? It looks nice and easy to use. Thanks Anne,Rep. Points added. All The Best, Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Thanks everyone Im glad yous liked the video, Tia started running upfront around sept when the cooler weather came in and Kira started last year although I dont run them when the warmer weather comes in I ll find the link for the anntenna and post it later under training tips:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeiperSky7 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Anne, Thank You ! I found a blog on Bikejoring here: http://bikejor.blogspot.com/2008/06/what-is-bikejoring.html which gives a link to the Sled Dog Shop in Belgium for the Antenna,but sadly the SDD website seems to be down at the moment. The Bikejoring blogger says that it works out to 46 to buy and import. Off to e-bay now to check out the bikes.....

Sarah Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 The strange looks lol I'd love to do it, haven't seen anyone round here with one though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rose Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 The attachment on the front is an Antenna, its a great bit of kit, keeps your lines off front wheel. I will let sarah post the link, takes a few months for the chap to deliver it though, he is quite slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Thanks glad you liked it ,Rose found the anntena ages ago and passed the link around I v never had strange looks (well none Iv seen anyway )Usually people say thats a great way to exercise your dog ,there is no way I could run Kira upfront down the canal I keep her on the walkydog she would have me in the canal she hates the swans :eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siberian_wolf Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 there is no way I could run Kira upfront down the canal I keep her on the walkydog she would have me in the canal she hates the swans :eek: That my concern too! Bandit mainly has a habit of suddenly darting off in another direction When I do start I may try and find a part of the forest that is fairly quiet and flat with the walkydog attachment or may get the springer for it to absorb some of the sideways pulling.

Anne Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Kira is OK in the forest althought she overheats quite easy and has been known to jump into the nearest stream with me attached she is much faster than Tia and far much stronger ,you will be surprised at how quick they pick it up ,I still use the walkydog a lot, its a lot lighter than the springer and easier to snap on and off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 did you have to do a lot of training before hand l.e so she knew how to stop, go right and left etc?? If so how did you do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex T Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 did you have to do a lot of training before hand l.e so she knew how to stop, go right and left etc?? If so how did you do it? Great question Sarah - added to rep! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anne Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Here is a wee bit to read some usefull info ,www.bikejor.com/ - 12k ,there are some video s at the top of the page ,I learened mine commands while out walking they only know three .:eek: If I was competing I would have learned them more but I only run the dogs for fun & exercise WOW >>>/STOP ___ Haw >>>Left Gee>>>Right Bikejoring is great fun but your dog is in control of you and the bike and I have to say Iv came off my bike a few times in the beginning but once they know the commands it really is great fun and then you can easily jump on a scooter or rig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
