People On Bikes. As a matter of fact, most of the time I just
regard myself as just a 'rider' -- it feels less onerous.

Yet every day, I pass a Ped with three dogs and one or more of them
suddenly start barking like crazy and scare me enough to make me jump; yes,
even though I partially expect it.

I often feel the urge to go up behind the Ped on the second lap and start
barking like a maniac. ;-p

Sadly, my better judgement takes hold and I say and do nothing.
