I have something similar to this but not quite as involved as this one. It's called a Walkydog and it's just a post that sticks out from the side of my bike that has a very short leash on it. The post sticks out far enough that my dog's legs won't get tangled up in the wheels and the leash is on a spring, so he doesn't get yanked around. We have a mutual understanding on how to behave around squirrels and other dogs and he knows I'll ride slow and steady. He's really pretty good with it. I take him with me to go pick up my kids from school and we all ride bikes back home together.

With your kids on the leash too?

Jk, sounds fun for all. Unfortunately the pedestrian and bike infrastructure in my place sucks ass.

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
