Biker brings his dog

The image of the rough, tough biker took a big hit at the Talkeetna Moose Dropping Festival parade this past weekend. From a distance the effect was about what you expect, loud pipes, salty language, tatoos, a nasty stare and so forth. The effect was lost, however, when he got up close and you saw the apricot-colored, teacup poodle peering out of his leather vest.
