  3. Blimey mate that all looks a bit energetic! But it made me think about you & me. You are the epitome of a mountain bike; perfect on rugged terrain whilst I am a carbon fibre racer in the velodrome hehe!! Deccy

  16. Bertie, we got to read your post before mom went to work, it made her late so we've come back to comment!
    Wish I could of been with you, its looked so much fun. Is there going to be a part two as I would love to see how you get that mud off!!

  17. That sure was a complicated activity. All the fussing about. Wouldn't they just have had as much fun with a good roll in the mud?

  22. Oh what fun Bertie, we so loved the pic of you covered in mud! That is just the best feeling in the world. Now if you get down and roll in it you will look and smell even better! It reaches the parts that even you can't reach.
    As for Bonnie being overdressed, you really must not pass comment on such things Bertie. Not all girls will take that as well as Bonnie.
    We can't wait to see you all wind surfing!!!
    love

  23. What a great gang you've got there!

    Looks like the perfect team for a day of adventure.

    That post has made us think there should be a Bertie comic to chronicle your exploits.

    I agree though, it doesn't look much like 'ice cream weather'.

    Love and licks, Winnie

  25. Biking Bertie? We like the sound of that. Sounds very manly. Always great to run and get muddy too. Your friends look like a fun mob. See ya mate. No worries, and love, Stella and Rory

  26. You get muddier than any other foxie we know...Scottish mud is the BEST...nice and gooey!! As for riding in the saddle bag? Honestly, Bertie...that must have been fabulous...no wonder you worked up an appetite!!

    Enjoy your rinse in the freezing cold stream!!!!!

  27. Bertie mate! I noticed you too were confused about Bart @ Rottrover and him being the most interesting dog! Bunny at Tales & Tails has kindly sent me this link... it all stems from an advert...

  28. Fantastic! How fun!
    Too bad you had to give up on your view at the very end :)

  29. Gail throws her bike down in the mud?! Or did you 'accidentally' knock it over so you could get to the saddle bags with the snacks? So how many miles did you run? Looks like you all kept up really well, even the little dogs. But poor Bonnie could overheat running in that life jacket. Maybe she could get Mike to save it for water-related activities? Anyway, looks like you and Gail have a fun new joint activity. Get your pet passport ready, Bertie. No excuses for leaving you behind next year when Gail cycles on the Continent.

    1. We are pleased to reassure you that Bonnie only wore the lifejacket for the first mile of the six mile outing. And that the temperature was only about 40 F and it was windy and raining (as usual...) Gail.

  30. I feel quite exhausted reading about your antics - Fun overload!!! Geesh, I now am convinced you have a better life than mine. Not fair!

  31. Ah Bertie, your idea of biking looks alot more fun than mine, stuck in a wicker basket on the handlebars. Then again...I do get the best view, a nice breeze, and have to exert very little energy. (And often there is ice cream at the final destination. Must insist Gail provides proper refreshments ,)

    We're very sad here today for our friends who we've never met, never seen, and in the case of "the font" whose name we don't even know. Yet we love them and share their grief, as we did when Hamish went on to his next journey. What a magical, unexplainable bond we dog bloggers share.
