You’d have seen many great bikers but Rocket, a three-year-old Shiba Inu, is probably the cutest rider ever.
Rocket is in love with long drives and gives his owner the best company he could get.
Rocket is named in remembrance of a character from ‘Guardians of the Galaxy.’ Chance McBride, Rocket’s owner, started training him to ride a bike from an age of just five months.
Watch him enjoy the ride in the video below.

When Chance, who lives in Phoenix, Arizona, adopted Rocket, he was going through a rough phase.
He had a head injury and was cut off from most of his friends and family. Chance, who had a hobby of bike riding, spent the majority of his time riding alone.
Now that Rocket is with him, he enjoys his rides even more. It was Rocket who gave Chance the emotional support he needed at the time.
“I started training Rocket when he was 5 months old to ride the motorcycle,” Chance said. “I put a towel on my gas tank and used a leash tied around my waist latching it to Rockets harness.
“We would do small rides around the neighborhood. We did this on the weekends for a few weeks and he loved it so I bought him a Kuryakyn Pet Palace.
“It is a great carrier that is meant for dogs and Motorcycles.
“I’m not good with people after my TBI, from a head injury 3 years ago, so I would go on rides by myself a lot. My wife and I moved to AZ from Colorado so all my friends and family were miles away while I was dealing with my TBI.
“Getting Rocket was a great emotional help, he and I are very close and he helps me with my TBI issues.
“I love spending time with him and riding motorcycles, so we ride pretty much everywhere together. I have met a lot of people at gas stations, stores, and even at red lights due to Rocket, he is a great ice breaker.
“I love to see rocket enjoying riding as much as I do. No matter how bad my day is he can make me smile.
“Rocket and I rode to every big lake or Reservoir in AZ getting ready for a long 2600 mile ride I had planned. In June 2018 we left AZ and rode through NM into CO.
“We stayed there for a few days visiting friends and family. From CO we rode to UT stopping in Logan UT for a few days to visit some more of my family. We left UT going back to AZ, heading home.
“We were gone 2 and a half weeks.
“I now have a K9 Sports sack for him so I can easily take him with me running errands or to just get out for a bit. My wife now can ride with us on the bike when I use the sport sack.
“And now a friend their family has moved to AZ so we all get to go riding together.”
Replaced!
