Adventures on the Skyline Drive, with Uther the Shiba Inu as Co-pilot!
Did about half of Skyline Drive today with my Shiba Inu, Uther. He is still learning to settle in and just enjoy the ride, so we had to cut out early and head home after he got a bit antsy. He's been loving it so far, however, and I'll keep posting more of our adventures together. We get SO MANY people oogling at us when we ride together, and everyone spoils him whenever we are stopped!
For note, his harness is set up as a 2-point rig with about 3" of slack in each retaining strap. It allows him to sit up, shift, and lay down, but not tip forwards or backwards and put himself in harm's way. His boots are to protect the seat from the dreaded claws, more than anything else. He'll graduate out of them once I am sure he won't 'dig in' around curves!

Skyline toll road? Not exactly

Toll road is not exactly a good description. What you are paying is an entrance fee to a National Park. 150 of the US National Parks charge this fee. It helps with revenues to keep the park operating. The entrance fee for motorcycles is $10. I think this is well worth keeping our National Park system in use.
My wife and I have done the Blue Ridge and Skyline drive several time as one trip. We usually do it in about 3 days. We live about 40 miles north of the North entrance to Skyline Dr.
