Bikes: Surly LHTD with a YAK trailer. I may have to ditch the trailer and go to panniers but I'll give it a try and see what happens.

Almitie Gawd, in his/her/it's infinite wisdom, gave up PEPPER SPRAY!! Mine goes with me anytime I'm riding. It's best to get one that shoots a stream rather than a mist. Just shooting some on the street or sidewalk in front of the dog will normally make them stop and head off in another direction. If you DO spray a dog, be prepared to give a dose to the dog's owner who will surely accost you with angry words much to the effect that HIS dog would never harm anybody. Some dog owners don't want to stop with words and must be stopped themselves from attacking. Others may have a different take on this situation!
