You could be dying on a hill.
You could be at your last breath.
You could be chasing someone.
You could be at your last kilometre.
It does not matter, it always brings a smile.
THE DOG IN THE BASKET.
It is one of my favourites.
Especially when the basket is on the back.
Especially when the dog is wearing goggles.
Especially when the dog is sitting as comfortably as if it were on a couch.
You notice each other at the same time.
You lock eyes.
You give a facial expression to let it know how excited you are.
He watches you approach and turns to watch as you ride by.
You give a look, a smile, a nod, and a ‘Hey Buddy.’
Once you get ahead, you stick your arm out and give a thumbs up.
A little way of saying thank you.
‘Ruff Ruff’
Insert Dog Bone emoji here, and you know? A Heart emoji too.
‘There is another way to ride.’
