This is true.My little conflict yesterday ended with out much argument and I hope with a little bit of understanding on both sides though I am sure he was not happy.Most of the time I politely wave to the review mirror to remind drivers that I'm there.First time someone actually stopped.

P.S. other wise a dog free ride occured. ________________________________ From:Kinnie Pruden <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, April 28, 2009 9:16:30 PM Subject: [COWs] dogs I had an encounter with a dog yesterday; he/she was driving a very large, road-hogging SUV. This dog, instead of chasing me, decided to meet me head-on by passing a car. There was no shoulder and I was hemmed in by a mailbox. It was one of those moments where you just look at the road then thank God after for no bone crushing noises. Chris, still up for a ride Friday? Leave from front of my house? 9:00 or 10:00? Tim, are you available to ride Friday?
