I'm not sure I could do it!

I have actually stopped and gotten off my bike and yelled at a BIG dog.
He turned tail and went back home when i quit looking like a deer and started looking like a human.
Yes, I have not actually used pepper spray while cruising on a bike. I think a person has to have a lot of balance and make sure that the wind is not blowing in the wrong direction! I worked in grizzly country for awhile and carried spray with me. I sprayed it one day to know how to use it. Ummmm..? Forgot about the direction of the wind! Anyway, it does knock the breath out of you and it does durn quite a lot in the eyes...That was the last time I sprayed...
