Missed the dog, lost control and landed on my right with road rash ankle to shoulder and the bike 20 feet up the road. The dog stopped barking and just stood looking at me. First time I've ever felt embarrassed in front of a dog!!!
It's not the dogs fault, it's the morons who own the dog that don't keep it on a leash. Go after the owners, not the dog.
