Hey, look! A dog!

I finally got chased by my first South Dakota dog while riding this morning. Unfortunately, it was a bitty little thing that didn't offer much of a challenge, but I am choosing to take heart that dogs do exist here and that they are sometimes inclined to offer a cyclist a little bit of extra-curricular activity. I hadn't been chased in about two months and was disappointed when riding back in Indiana a few weeks ago since I chose some of my favorite routes with some of the fastest dogs I've encountered and didn't even get a nibble. Hopefully, this morning just served to prime the pump and I'll be in for some serious interval work over the next month or so.
