Bike Riding?

Hey guys, I am trying to train Katy to run beside me while I ride my bike. I seem to recall reading something about this last summer of course then Katy was tiny and it wasn't happening so now she is ready and so am I! I did a search and came up with zero. Anyone got any tips on training the dog to run with the bike.
We have started slow, walking together with the bike, walking on the other side of the bike as her, and now I am on the bike and just pushing it . She does fine with all of the above. As soon as I start riding she gets excited and starts trying to bite my tires. Danger for her and me! :(
This would be such great exercise for both of us and I would really like to train her to do this!
Our trainer also suggested getting the arm that you can attach to your bike.
How expensive are they? Should I invest in one in order to train her or after she is trained with the bike?
Let me know if you can offer more advice.
Thanks
