Yeah, the zen comment was meant more for the 12 miles into it part. Feeling good about going that long. I, personally don't think being without headphones would have changed anything. I was riding on the road... the dogs were coming for me. I'm pretty aware of my surroundings when I'm riding even with the headphones on, but this event did teach me to be better prepared for random dogs running in the roads. Maybe if I heard them barking earlier, you're suggesting I could have pedaled faster to avoid the conflict- to which, I agree.

Thanks for your comments.
