	I have found that dogs in different parts of the country respond in
	different ways to the cyclist.  In Texas where I have riden many a mile,
	the "rural" dogs as well as "city" dogs were not kept under as close a
	watch by their owners as in Colorado (where I now reside).  In Texas
	seldom a day passed that I was not chased by at least one dog while
	riding my bicycle.  I have been in Colorado for almost two years and
	have had only one dog pursue me.  What other parts of the country have
	well trained dogs (or uninterested ones)?
