And I'm feeling pretty bad about it. On a 35-mile ride by myself and there is a pack of three dogs a certain point who always chase. Today this one dog came on hardcore while his buddies chased to more or less chase. His teeth were clinched like he was ready to bite and he was inches from the front wheel/right leg. Me or him, crash or no crash. So I clipped out, tried to scare him away by yelling and put my foot out. Ended up bopping him in the face causing him to stop, he let out a whimper and then a little kid came running after him. Kept on going, but was this excessive? Anyone have something like this happen? Will PETA be knocking down my door in the morning?
