Bicycle + this has been a godsend for my pups. Cheaper than the normal bike attachments, but it works very well.
I've been biking with my husky for 2 summers now. A few weeks ago we biked 8 miles together with a friend. We had to work on heel a lot for normal walking, so as long as yours knows heel, you're good.
I didn't waste money on an expensive attachment, or a harness. For some reason he doesn't like harnesses. For $6 you can get this:

I just attach that below the seat, and loop a normal leash around the post a few times, hook it up to the carabiner. Done. He rides along side of me, with a ton of encouragement. If I need to stop him, I can just grab the leash and hold him back, but normally he stays in pace with me and the bike.
If you've got any questions let me know! I'd love to help. Best $6 we've ever spent on this dog.
