Next time the dogs chase, spray up a storm. Don't worry about aiming accurately, just make a cloud ahead of the dogs and let them run into it. That will end the chase, and dogs aren't that stupid and will remember and associate you and burning eyes for future reference. Some dogs are slower learners, and you might have to repeat the lesson once or twice, but ALL dogs do learn, and may chase bikes, but not you.
I might fill a bottle with apple cider vinegar. I have a jug of that and I read it's a good repellent. But if they get close enough to latch on to me again the Zefal is coming out.
