Interesting ride back home. Didn't realize I can pump over 800W for more than 20 seconds... Basically, on the way back... going through some residential area... something caught corner of my eye on fringe of my light. Hmm... it's rather big... looks... like dog... looking at me... a loose doberman heading toward me... No growling, no barking... just approaching...
I had a little moment of... WT# and started spinning a little faster so our trajectories don't meet... Except, I see it changing its course. Couple of things flashes through my mind and I decided to gun it. Sure enough, it chases after me. I give it a little "Lance look"... and sure enough, it is only about 6ft behind me. Check my leg and I did have more so I just dump it like I would do in a minute interval training. After about 20 seconds of that... (felt longer than that but based on my powermeter and garmin..) it stopped chasing me. About 10 more seconds later, I see some kids playing outside on yard, taking stroll. And next thing coming to my mind is... I could run from it... but this kids?! Still upset about whoever is the owner of the dog letting it loose out like that. Could be stray but it looked a little too healthy for that.
I am not sure what to do in situation like this next time... Totally forgot about the water bottle water jet idea. Don't carry around pepper spray (I think I will look into it)...
