Sure they are nice, then you realize you're not at the top of the food chain. On a woodsy commute, I had one start on the other end of a boardwalk going towards me. Broad daylight. 40 ft away wouldn't back down. I then clapped, shouted and banged my bike, it back off, but kept me in sight. At least 45-50 lbs.
