I was recording another tough climb like I always do and noticed a loose dog waiting for me at the top of a switchback. It barked a little, then trotted alongside me until I reached the top of the climb. Since this dog was friendlier than the last one that chased me up a hill, I figured it was pretty safe to make my usual puppy sound.
You can see the dog starting at 4:52 in the video.

your usual PUPPY SOUND?? you do that when dogs bug you?
you are a crazy climbing chick! 8-) I have to ride more before I try riding with you! :p
No. I make that sound because 99% of the time dogs love it and beg to be petted. While cycling I make that sound to calm barking dogs or to communicate with friendlier ones like in the video.Quote:

No you don't. ;) I'll go whatever speed you want. :) I sometimes ride with other friends who are working on getting stronger too. If I want to push hard on a short steep climb I turn around at the top, ride back down, and finish the climb with them.Quote:
