No, they were arguing that he was 35 miles or so from home, and he shouldn't have been so far from home cuz then he wouldn't have hit their dog. He should've been closer to his house or on a bike trail instead, then their dog wouldn't have been victimized by the evil bicyclist.

35 was not his speed.

Nice of their kids to tell the cyclist about all the other bikes the dog chased, eh?
