I hadn't gotten off my bike when he bit. I stopped pedaling (to slow down) and he bit my ankle. I then came to a complete stop, put my bike between us and yelled at him to "go home". If I had not stopped pedaling I would not have been bit. I should have known better because I have been chased by this dog before and he never attempted anything like this. All I want to say is that stopping is not ALWAYS the answer to dealing with these dogs!
