Cycling with a Canine: One Boy’s 14,000 Km Adventure Through India!

When Sonu Raj decided to live out his dream by cycling across India, he probably didn’t expect to return with a four-legged friend. After rescuing an injured dog, who would soon be named Charlie, from the side of the road, Sonu became a social media sensation. Together, the duo travels with a style only a rescued dog could pull off—Charlie rides like the queen of the road in her custom carrier while Sonu tackles over 14,000 kilometers across 15 states.

Their journey held much more than just cycling—Sonu embraced moments of kindness from strangers who cheered them on and even offered support, like gifting him a new bicycle. But don’t get it twisted—there were critics lurking in the shadows, reminding everyone that not every adventure is a bed of roses. Through challenges and harsh weather, Sonu and Charlie emerged as symbols of courage and compassion. If only more people knew how to rescue a dog and pedal their way to happiness!

It’s hard not to wonder—how many animal tales have come from this kind of adventure? If you could cycle across a country with a special friend (animal or human), where would you go? Let’s hear your travel dreams!
