This is why I get so upset about people who keep their pets off-leash in public. "BuT it'S DanGeroUs tO ride a biKe With A doG on Its LeAD." Yeah, but what about when your off-leash dog encounters someone's off-leash bear and it outpaces you on a mountain bike. Now you're gonna go home and question if you're a shitty bicyclist, and those are the scars that'll never heal.

You train recall? It's like the first thing you want to train, and arguably the only mandatory thing you need to teach a dog. Notice how the collie in the video came back as soon as it was called?

I seriously thought that my part about an "off-leash bear" would be indicator enough that my comment was sarcasm, but obviously not. I think I buried it too deep in too long of a joke.

I did think the off-leash bear part was pretty funny. But there are many (specifically Americans) who think it's crazy to let a dog off the lead under any circumstance.

I keep my dogs on-leash because they think that stink animals and spike pigs are friends.

Is this sarcasm? That's a black bear, generally safe, you can tell it's not protecting it's babies because it ran away from the dog. Also I live in a very rural area and I've only ever seen a black bear once on trails. Meanwhile I've almost run over a dog not on a leash several times, I can't imagine how difficult riding with a leashed dog would be.

Yeah, it's sarcasm. Hence the "off-leash bear" and that a bear outpacing you would cause emotional damage. But it seems I did a pretty shitty job of making a joke.

Ah good, I'm also not that good at picking up sarcasm on the Internet...
