Este aventurero perro está recorriendo EE.UU en moto junto a su mejor amiga

¡Baylor y Mallory ya llevan 200 días de viaje!

 

Si siempre soñaste con viajar con tu perro pero aún no lo has hecho, esta pareja terminará por convencerte. Mallory y Baylor, sí que saben lo que significa aventura. Hoy ya cuentan 200 días viajando en una motocicleta con Baylor, un labrador de 11 años, acompañándola en un carrito hecho a la medida a un costado. Desde que Mallory conoció a Baylor cuando era sólo un cachorro, se volvieron inseparables. Con el paso de los años han compartido todo tipo de experiencias, desde vivir juntos en una Combi VW amueblada, hasta acampar y ahora último recorrer Estados Unidos en motocicleta.

Ambos están disfrutando el viaje a concho, sobre todo Baylor que no deja de hacer nuevos amigos

Después de todo… ¿quién podría resistirse al flechazo de amor después de verlo allí disfrutando en su carrito con sus lentes?

En esta aventura sobre ruedas han podido conocer nuevas experiencias

Y le han demostrado al mundo que no es necesario ser alguien tan osado ni perfecto para vivir su sueño y ser feliz

One of my absolute favorite things about #operationmotodog is seeing kids faces light up when they see #baylorthedog riding along. It's a mixture of pure joy and utter awe. Though it may be a small contribution to the world, I like to think we're spreading a bit of magic wonder into people's lives. Disrupting all the shoulds and musts with a little dose of adventurous what ifs and never before imagined possibilities.

Ellos sencillamente están viviendo el momento y disfrutando lo máximo que puedan

Beach frolicking is one of my top 5 ways to start the day. Luckily #baylorthedog agrees.

¡Y en los últimos 11 años ya llevan más de 160.000 km recorridos!

“No podría haber pedido un mejor co-piloto”

–Mallory Paige–

With a desire to just power through, I realized I wasn't really seeing any of the landscape. Focused on the end point, I wasn't presently paying attention to the moment. With fresh eyes I realized this was turning out to be one of my favorite stretches in Florida. Field after field of tall waving grasses. Agrarian life in the most unexpected of places. And a grinning sidekick to top it all off. With a newfound commitment to the moment the ride itself went from necessary slog to enjoyable adventure. Sometimes we just need a reminder that the journey itself is indeed the destination. #operationmotodog #baylorthedog

Una tienda de campaña que llevan atada atrás de la moto se ha convertido en su nuevo hogar

Two of my favorite morning things include awaking to sun streaming through the tent and the reliability of #baylorthedog being excited to jump up and have breakfast. Sometimes the simple things are the best things.

Y cada momento de este viaje juntos quedará por siempre grabado en su memoria

This guy has happily lived the 9to5 life and just as happily transitioned to the #nomadiclife. He's accompanied me down rocky white water rivers, up steep mountain peaks, and into tumultuous seas. Comforted me during trying times and celebrated with me during the good ones. He's eaten an entire fresh made cake off the counter, followed by remorse so great I spent the entire evening trying to cheer him up in place of punishment. He's racked up vet bills, altered travel plans, made messes, acted like a grumpy only child and taken himself on stress-inducing walkabouts. We're not perfect, but I like to think giggles, devotion and mindful effort fills the cracks of imperfection and forges a love strong and true. #operationmotodog #baylorthedog

Aquí están visitando su monumento favorito: el cacahuate de Alabama

Best roadside attraction so far. Alabamans take their peanuts very seriously. #operationmotodog #baylorthedog

Para Mallory, Baylor no sólo es el mejor copiloto que alguien pudiese desear. Es también su mejor amigo y compañero con el que ha decidido compartir lo mejor de sus días

#baylorthedog rode in a sidecar for the first time in June shortly before we departed. Oregon headed for Alaska. Having spent weeks learning to weld and metalwork to attach the motorcycle and sidecar I was nervous. If he didn't like it, #operationmotodog would not happen. Just as we'd practiced, Baylor loaded up, I secured his harness, gave him a treat and rolled slowly around the parking lot. I kept glancing over worriedly. He just laid down, bored with my slow driving. That day, two days prior to departure, was the moment I knew the adventure was really going to happen. Now we're rolling through Alabama, celebrating more than 170 days on the road. :@joelbear

The rain held off so we enjoyed a morning filled with hiking, exploring and a little fire time. I was quite pleased with my fire starting success, but Baylor was just annoyed. At the first sign of a flame, he glared at me and asked to be let in the tent, reminding me that he adamantly hates fire. Sometimes you just have to agree to disagree.
