Doing winter base miles with three other guys way out in unfamiliar Indiana boonies. Up the road a few hundred yards I see a group of houses, probably a cross roads. As we approach I see a couple of dogs walk into the road, still 200 hundred yards away. Then I see another dozen dogs walk into the road. This was a serious OH SH** moment. One of the guys I was with launched up the road yelling and flailing his arms. All the dogs cleared out. As we got close enough to see, there were probably 20 dogs of all variety hiding in ditches, under cars and on porches. Not a one came after us as we passed. Funniest thing I've ever seen.
