I had a good one last weekend. My wife and I were out on some of the local hiking trails, which are often crowded with bikes and hikers on the weekends. We ride respectfully, calling out, slowing down, etc. So, last Sunday was particularly busy and I was ready to get off the main trail at the end of the ride. As I'm coming around a blind corner I see a couple with 2 little Chihuahuas off-leash (and they see me). The couple steps aside, and the dogs just stand there looking at their owners. I wasn't rolling very fast and slowed a bit when I saw the dogs in the middle of the trail, but when the dogs didn't move I slowed to a stop and proceeded to fall over before I could unclip. The couple were mortified...all apologies, helping me up, and (I swear) the dogs just stood there looking at me with that "you're a stupid human" look.
