Grrr..... I am more pissed at the owner(s) than the dog to be honest. It happened on a MUP. I was riding on my usual speed trying to get home. From a distance I saw a couple and a off leash dog. At the back of my mind, I anticipate trouble. The dog was looks to be straying away from its mistresses. As I approach, the mistresses called the dog, but the dog ignored them.
About 15ft away, the dog saw me and came towards me. I was slowing down with my hands were on the brakes. True enough the dog came right in front of my bike. Like ???
I stopped right in front of the stupid pooch. One of the older **** yelled "You almost hit him!" I just shook my head in total disgust. The dog ran right in front of me beotches! That damn dog of theirs wanted to commit suicide by bike by crossing the path towards my side!
I gave them a glare and shook my head more. Decided to attribute this to poor dog control as usual and pedaled on.
Apologies for some strong words. But nothing irks me more than idiotic bone headed dog owners falsely accusing others for their lack of canine control. I hate them more than cagers!
