The dog riding the bike is the owners 2nd Dalmation he was known as "Prince". He was the company mascot for 15 years and rode a motorcycle about 14 of them. He was a card carrying Gold Wing Co-Rider and put on 50,000 or more miles on in his adventurous life, and rode as well as any human. It was Prince's idea to get on the seat and ride rather than stay behind one day when his usual ride the convertable was broke. It only took a week or so before Prince saw what it was going to take to go with Mike as usual and initiated getting on the back seat of the Kawasaki 440 to go for a ride. A short trip around the block demonstrated he was serious and would stay there resisting the urge to catch a bird or get a run on a cat.

From that day on there was nothing to hold him back he flew in planes, rode motorcycles, sail boats or dingys, if he could get on it, or in it, he went. He brought a smile to many a face and made the sadest person laugh just by seeing him ride by.

He was a example of what a dog is capable of and that Dalmations are not dumb or death. As some assume, they in fact are very smart and adopt to what ever is needed to please, or be with thier owners.
To watch his gift to make so many smile was a even bigger gift for me, he truly touched thousands, and will be forever missed.
