Ran a dog.....from a roll
Well, as some of you may know, my car isnt running at the moment. I am steadily saving away for the work that I have to do. I am riding the Rabbit Transit(local bus) to work and riding a sweet *** 26" Mongoose mountain bike to classes. On Wed.(yesterday) I go to class from 8am- 1030pm. I end up making six trips over to campus to go to class. Well, on my final trip over there, it is aobut 745pm. I live on one end of town and I have to go through some well....rough parts of town to get to campus. I am riding down the road and from out of a breezeway comes a fairly big dog. At first I have no problem although I dont mess w/ dogs. Then I realize that he doesnt have a leash or rope. He is free. Immediately, he charges toward my bike. "Here we go" I think.
I immediately, drop a gear and take off. The dogstays right w/ me for about four seconds. By that time, I 'shift' and start to gain even more speed. The dog is falling farther and farther behind. By the end of the block I am flying and the dog is just a speck when i turn around. Owned!!!! hahahahha I know it isnt that good but this is the best I can do w/o my stang to get some real kills....Later...

lol nice story.
I didn't know you could shift gears on the fly with those. Can that damage anything?

Breyton- Idk, I have a crazy power to weight ratio. He has the rotational mass of FOUR legs to move.
BTW- I have a 1996 26" Mongoos mountain bike w/ Walmart tires. SO far, I have just a slightly out of tune bike. This dog is going around talking Sh* about my bike. He is stock but might have those little booties that hunters use for their retrievers. He also has no collar or Stage II weight reduction....Can I beat him???
