Barbie Biking video

We went out for a short ride this morning with a couple of cameras trained on Barbie. The cameras are a Camshot bike camera which I bought from Torpedo7, and an OTEK DVS 550 mounted on the bars of N's bike. The bike is a Bike Friday New World Tourist folder.


She was pretty tired from a run at the beach yesterday so she is trotting pretty steadily. Usually I can get a few more turns of speed out of her, but not today!

hahah well her big brother taught her how to really *chew* things so that helps - I wonder if some greys have bad teeth cos they don't exert enough force from their skinny little jaws when they have bones etc..... Barbie's 4 now and her teeth are great, let's hope they stay that way for as long as possible...

That's very cool! I don't think we'l be putting that on Bella's 'agenda' anytime soon but what a great way to exercise your dog!

Barbie looks like a thoroughbred in action at the Triple Crown.

Barbie looks awesome! You really have a good set up going there with the bike and with the cameras!

I found myself oddly fascinated by trying to see what her tags look like, though!

hahah yes, the youtube would be too low resolution to read it.... I never realised how much they swing around til I watched the vid, either.... it must be a bit annoying!

Too much fun! She may have been tired but she had no trouble keeping up!

Oh, those cameras get very cool angles! :-) Barbie looks like she was enjoying herself...even if she wasn't zooming along at top speed! Anyway, I thought Greyhounds were sprinters, not endurance marathon runners - so it would fit, wouldn't it?

What an awesome cycle track! That was a great video. I honestly can't see Beryl doing that. She doesn't seem like that kind of dog to me, lol. But if I got Frankie trained I think he'd enjoy it.
