So when I encountered a troublesome dog, I took to riding past him again
and again, giving negative feedback until he stopped chasing me that
day. I'd return the next day and repeat.


Altamont road runs -- or ran, I haven't seen it since the turn of the
century -- along the base of the Eastern Cliffs of the Helderbergs.
Why "*Alta*mont" when the town is at the base of the cliff, I don't
know.

So when I rode to Altamont, the ground sloped sharply upward to my
left. One day two dogs came bellowing down a long curving driveway to
meet me. I sprayed one, they broke off their attack, and I continued
on.

When I came back, the same two dogs came bellowing down the same
driveway. About two thirds of the way down they recognized me,
slammed on the four-paw brakes, and ran back up the driveway.

I still think the best technique is find somebody like my dimwit friend Larry to stick his finger in the dogs butt. Id pay to see that.
