Everyone ought to be aware that the real danger from
dogs is *not* that they will bite you, but that
they will get under your wheel and cause you to
take a nasty spill.  I forget what the number of
accidents due to this cause per year is, but it
is quite substantial (hundreds).  So take care when
pedalling furiously away, and don't let your air
pump get caught in the spokes (same result, down you
go!)
