How I travel with my dog while bikepacking around the world. Mira’s dogpacking set-up 🐕🤗💕

Bikepacking the world with a dog. Learn how we setup our bike to travel the world 🌎 -
Join Mira and John as they dogpack the Americas. Summer of 2020 they rode the GDMBR, The Oregon Timber Trail, Orogenisis, Wild West route, Baja Divide, Trans Mexico_Norte and many others.
This year as the borders open they are riding south to towards the tip of South America.
Special guests:
❖Welcome to OMNITIERRA ❖
Mira (dog) and John (human) are bikepacking around the world. Together we are Dogpacking to all 7 continents (6 for Mira). Here you will find videos about bikepacking to familiar and remote parts of the globe, people and places, How to's and just being a dog.
This is a new channel and we are learning how to tell our stories about the world we see. If you have an idea for something you would like to see here let me know in the comments.🙏

you guys are amazing!! y'all have inspired Kiki and me to go on our own adventures on the Colorado trail "Denver to Durango" . after my moms death I didn't know what to do, I have no family or any friends not even a place to call home anymore. I was really depressed about everything, and not being able to afford gas money to drive my moms old camper van that Kiki and me live in. thanks to Mira and you we have ben shown the best way to travel and see the country even with as little as we have to live on and work with. may your journeys be safe and your adventures be fun y'all ✌

[@mattsysko636]

Thanks for sharing, John. You have inspired me over the last 2 years to take my dog along on family bike rides. He rides a couple hundred miles a year, although he is only 20lbs, I use a topeak basket that is easy to remove as needed and still have room for panniers below. I have tried a burley dog trailer with my larger dog which works ok but is much harder to manage. Great content and love seeing and hearing your stories!

[@OmniTierra]

Happy you’re getting some value of this Matt. Yeah, the burly dog trailer from what I recall has two wheels. So I’m not surprised it was tough to manage.

John, you inspired me to build a basket on my gravel bike for my 19kg pup. The weight is too far back, so I see why you extended the frame! I will keep trying. Thanks for all your videos, big fan of you both!

[@OmniTierra]

Hey Oliver I would recommend a single wheel trailer like the ones from Farfarer, Bob Yak or the Burly Coho. In that order of recommendation.

[@mlee6050]

​@@OmniTierra I understand that, in time I been looking to build a 5 wheel trailer, main 4 as a more stable normal trailer and help on weight I want, 5th be in centre as a gravity or spring wheel to hold a single electric motor wheel to ground (so I don't need an e bike), but as been thinking to get one that maybe 40kg when adult I believe and rather not waste money on sitters

[@oldmoto5009]

Hi John I’m a big fan of Mira, I have a friend that had his dog running in a field and when it came back the paw was sliced and the artery was bleeding 🩸 out very badly, maybe cut by broken glass or a sharp can ,I’m just letting you know what could happen , you should carry a paste made to plug the bleeding and a pawflex medimitt as a emergency bandage for dog paws , you can buy this from chewy or another medic pack for dogs store, you could be way out there and need this to save Mira’s life and give you time to get to an emergency vet, just giving you something that has happened and to be prepared for an emergency, you two are so cool and I’m just trying to help

[@OmniTierra]

I do carry some extra first aid supplies for Mira as well as booties. One thing to keep in mind is that if a dog does slice its paw, it bleeds more than you would imagine for such a small cut. It’s a little bit like when a person gets cut on the scalp. To put you at ease I will let you know that Mira’s safety and health are my top concerns while travelling

[@oldmoto5009]

@@OmniTierra i know you love Mira I was just letting you know what happened to my friends dog , when it’s paw got slashed it almost bleed to death, we wrapped it and rushed it to a hospital close by, 90 % of people don’t tell other people things that happened to them to other people to watch out for , all I saying is to carry a patch of a wax or paste that is made to stop the bleeding in a dog’s paw and then wrap it , you guys are way out in the middle of nowhere and this could save Mira’s life , you don’t have to put me at ease or let me know that Mira’s is your top concern, I have always tried to learn from what happens to other people in life and all I’m saying is what happened to us, I don’t have to imagine from a small cut it actually happened and lived it , the booties are good but they will not stop bleeding, just letting you know something to look into not telling you that you are not concerned about Mira’s safety, keep the videos coming on UTUBE they are my top travel videos

Hey John, I love watching you, Mira and even Ryans adventures! I have a question im not sure if I missed? How much dog food do you carry on longer trips?

[@OmniTierra]

Hi Martin thanks for the question. It’s one that I get on a regular basis but unfortunately the experience was a very poor one. @Pinion and Gates system are terrific and I am very happy with how they work. There are several companies making bikes with these units now. Full suspension and bike packing/touring bikes

[@davidbee9563]

I set up my sister's bike with a front rack and basket for her Border Terriers(about 7kgs).She has two but it can only take one at a time. It is odd to think a small dog weighs the same as a carbon race bike! Just curious with the rack/mtb combo why a cargo bike like a Big Dummy would not work. Would the weight be too far back? Or is the bike so long and feels slow?

[@dhotz8474]

And Mira is how many pounds? I've been experimenting with day trips and my buddy trots along great. He's 65 pounds and I'm thinking a trailer would be helpful on the longer treks. Unfortunately I don't see a basket working for him.

[@archery.nations]

How is it with sleep? Does the dog sleep during riding the bike? I want to start with my dog but wonder if she will get enough sleep, because if we are on the road for 8-10 hours and she will be awake the whole time then that doesnt sound too healthy but not really sure. The information regarding how much sleep is needed vary from 12 to 20 hours per day. 12 seems doable when bikepacking, 20 not so much.

[@OmniTierra]

Mira is my fifth dog. I’ve only ever had border collies, and border collie mixes. So I have no experience with a dog sleeping 20 hours. If I had a dog that slept 20 hours in one day, I would call it “Log” 🤪

[@StarEssences]

I just purchased a heavy duty rectangular 19 x 14 x 8 milk crate that holds up to 6 gallons of milk which ='s 48lbs for my medium sized standard Dachshund mix female who now weighs at 28lbs. I watched a couple of other videos on how to attach a milk crate to a rear bicycle rack and one said to just use 18" velcro straps to attach the front (easy on and off) and heavy duty zip ties for the rear and then I purchased steel ring motorcyle cargo tie downs to attach to the bottom bolts of rear rack and then run bungee cords through and down under crate and them hook them to steel ring. I am still trying to figure out what to do for the sides of plastic crate such as what you did to yours for Mira. Have any other suggestions in how to pad the top edges that may be easier for a women to do?

[@OmniTierra]

Easier way to pad the edge of the basket than a pool noodle? I haven’t watch the video in quite some time, but I’m pretty sure that I mentioned that. All the women in my life are real badass and resourceful so I’m not totally sure what you mean🤔.

[@StarEssences]

@@OmniTierra I thought you being a guy and knowing that men overall are more mechanically, construction etc oriented than women, that you may have had a better idea or easier way to pad milk crate edges. I am going to follow your example through very cost effective means; Materials: Pipe insulation cut to size a grommet kit, and vinyl - cordura material, and nylon string. Total cost for everything...under $45.00. (Much better than paying $150.00+ simply for a pet trailer. Thanks for the inspiration of a easy set up to place larger sized pets on a bicycle...Happy riding :)

Great to see you and Mira. I have an unrelated question: What saddle do you use? it looks brooks saddle, isn't it? Thanks for your great videos!

[@OmniTierra]

Hi Alfredo, yes this is a @Brookssaddle Cambium with the cut out. I think it’s the C 17. Funny thing is I bought it years ago and didn’t find it that comfortable but for some reason when I switch to it this time it feels like it’s the best saddle I’ve ever had and it’s extremely low maintenance. I suspect initially I had the positioning a little wrong.

[@aperezy17]

@@OmniTierra thanks saddle is my most sensitive aspect for bikepacking, it seems that no one ia the right one, i've changed saddles three times now. I must try the brooke. Thanks and i continue following yours and Mira:s stories. Cheers

[@secretdaisy6484]

Thanks for the info. It was all pretty much as I expected after watching your videos. Unfortunately my crabby Spaniel who is 14 would never tolerate that kind of setup or travel 😕 no matter how much I want him to. What do you do to get Mira into foreign countries? Aside from camping her shot record etc., does she have to be in quarantine or is it a smooth entry? 👍☮️🌞🚴🐶🐾❤️

[@OmniTierra]

Typically only island nations require quarantine. Many have reduced the number of days required as long as you have all requirements in place. Crossing by land simplifies things considerably. 🇺🇸🇲🇽 hardly wanted to see my passport 🤪

[@scottrizzoifly]

What model of Fjallraven pants are shown in your videos on rest days

[@OmniTierra]

Sorry, I don’t remember the model but they’re a very lightweight pair. Possibly their lightest.

[@snowfalleon7629]

Did Mira ever whine in the basket? Our border collie whines until she’s gotten to run for a long distance.

[@OmniTierra]

No, Mira usually only whines if she feels we’ve been left behind in a group of riders. Thankfully, it doesn’t happen very often.🐕🤪

[@Cycle-Tourer]

Which bicycle you ride? This is cargo bike converted to off-road bike? What is the wheelbase length? around 130cm?

[@OmniTierra]

This bike is roughly based on the @salsacycles Blackborow (no longer produced) . But it has been purpose built for our trip.

[@Cycle-Tourer]

It's amazing bicycle. Several years I am thinking about building long wheelbase MTB based on cargo bike frame. It has amazing stability on rough surface.

[@user-lc2mu9jk2b]

Can you please explain the eyeglasses you put on her from time to time?

We addressed that on Instagram a while ago.

[@teva4669]

Hey great channel! Can you explain how do you manage to carry this bike by plane ? Is there any restriction on bringing a long trail bike ? When crossing borders, how do you go through all the quarantine stuff for Mira ?

[@OmniTierra]

Quarantine typically only happens for island nation states. And example would be Australia or the UK. Most other places are pretty straightforward. United States and Mexico, when travelling by land, don’t even bother to look at any paperwork.

[@register1430]

Do you have US/MEX trip content still to be released? Episode 4 was a long time ago. Further south of you, one side benefit of the US migrant issue is that the VEN's et al have beaten down a pretty good path through the D GAP. Are you hearing reports on the conditions? Have you given this any (fleeting) thought to try? I expect we will soon start seeing a few daredevils trying the southbound route, cameras in hand.

[@OmniTierra]

We’re looking forward so, there likely won’t be any videos for the US at this point. We’ve ridden across the US five times now so I really wasn’t about to bother with a camera. I’m not a fan of jungles or swamps so I think will possibly paddle our way to South America. The Gap has been crossed before on foot by gringos. I guess the other thing I would say is that entering into these countries is a privilege so I’ll do my best to enter through established ports of entry.

[@register1430]

@@OmniTierra solid answer.

[@cypriano8763]

has she ever protected the bike and prevented a robbery

[@OmniTierra]

My theory on that is that it’s very hard for a person to be both kind and loving and a thief or looking to do harm. So a persons mindset is to steal I’m guessing they think that Mira will defend and become aggressive. And maybe she would, if someone gave off that vibe. But generally, in this part of the world people are very friendly and kind, but I’m prudent about where I put the bike and for how long.

[@awareness556]

A dog on a bike is a terrible idea. It may work for you and maybe you care enough to keep the dog safe but there are many who are not responsible enough to do it safely. People will try to copy you and many dogs will suffer as a result. I feel sad every time I see a dog on a bike, motorcycle, surfboard, or kayak.

[@OmniTierra]

Hey thanks so much for taking time to leave a comment here and (if I take your comment at face value) your concern for dogs. All comments help this channel and by extension us be successful in our journey to ride to all 7 continents. Mira's health/ safety and quality of life are all extremely important to me. I would hope that's the same for any person that has a dog in their life. But I think you are so right to point out the extreme hazards of kayaking 😜🤪
