Last week I tried biking again for the first time in… Over half a decade, I think. After the initial “whoa, dude, what are you doing?!” from Suki as I stuffed her into my backpack, she realized what was planned and had a blast hanging her head out the side to catch a breeze. Unlike her, I went into it with great expectations and partway through thought I was going to pass out. I’m going to blame my haywire gear system for the difficulty I had…

Anyway, enough about my pathetic endurance, this was Suki’s face when I first clipped her into the backpack:

“Help me! She’s finally gone crazy!”

I attached her harness to the water bladder compartment clip so that I could leave the backpack zipper half open to give her a good view while still keeping her safely secured in.
