Three months ago, Ballard resident David Sylvester took off on his bike with his dog Chiva in tow on a 15-month trek. His goal is to bike across the country, climbing the tallest mountain of every state along the way. His blog describes it best: “Exploring the world with dog and bicycle to promote canine companionship, environmental awareness and living it up!” David and Chiva are currently in Dubois, Wyoming. You can follow their trek via his blog, where he’s snapping photos along the way.
