This was one among my several aspirations that I could not fulfil during my young days In those days girls could not ride nor learn to cycle. But may be later I could have. Somehow that day did not dawn. How I wish I could and carry our pets just as you see in the photo but that was not to be. Do you ride a bicycle. Have you taken your pets for a cycle ride?

I liked riding my bicycle when I spent my vacation time at my grandmother house in the country side. Here the roads are too steep.

@LadyDuck It was the same in India during our time but now it is different. Many girls are experts in cycling, biking, car driving, etc.

@allknowing In Italy, girls were not encouraged when I was young. It was fine to go cycling in the country side, but in city it was not at all convenient. Women had to dress elegant and those elegant dresses were not appropriate to go cycling.

I see a lot of it in my place too some even uses motorcycle to carry their pets. I think it takes a lot training for the pets to do that.

@allknowing That is true they will naturally jump out so I think it will take some time before you can.

Unless they are trained it would be risky to take them for rides.

I have not been on a bicycle in decades. Quite frankly, I am afraid I’d get hit by a car. Paths to ride far away from traffic are not plentiful around here. Plus, I have nowhere to store a bike, inside OR outside of my apartment.

I love riding bicycles when I was younger but haven't tried carrying a pet with me. That photo is cute. The dog is well-behaved and had been trained well.

When I was a kid I put my poodle in the basket of my bike and he stayed while I went riding my bike.

@allknowing usually just around town, four or five miles each way. Sometimes further if I have a lot of errands and it's a nice day

@allknowing Yes, I ride a shared bike. I have obtained a monthly pass, which is cheap. For example, after I step out of the subway, there may still be a 10 minute walk from my destination. At this time, I scan the QR code at the subway entrance to ride a shared bike.
