Here it is, we’ve been waiting for one of these for a long time. The latest and greatest upgrade you can make to a mountain bike (as long as there are no sheep around)… Reuben the trail hound.

He has no trouble keeping up, actually normally he forces his way past and mocks our feeble attempts to go fast off road, then rubs it in by launching off 10ft drops with ease (we’re trying to discourage that one).

We’ve only had him a few weeks after getting him from Rotherham Dog Rescue but he is getting the hang of riding already and has already found several new trails. With a bit more practice I think he’ll out-run us too.
