There are various types of leash attachment - which one are you going to use?
I've only ever leashed my dogs to bikes during the training period, as I am able to take them to areas where they can run off leash with the bike. If I were going to use a leash attachment the Springer would be my choice

I taught all my dogs to get used to a bike on a leash initially, with me walking, just pushing the bike, making sure the dogs stayed at my side and not run in front of the bike. I would then mount the bike and just push along with my feet at slow speed, then start pedalling, increasing speed until I could ride with the dog running along. But always at the speed that was right for the dog.
Once this was accomplished I would let them off leash and they would trot besides me. Sometimes they would stop to investigate something and then had to catch up. But we all had a good time. My dogs are too old now to do any kind of vigorous exercise, more of a potter around.
Hope you will find biking with your dogs enjoyable, just take the training slowly and have fun.
