not scary so much but wary of dogs when cycling... so unpredicatble and you are not in a stable position to handle them.

Tractors.
Morons.
Was actually making decent time on my last ride of the Summer, cracking along at 22mph and a tractor decides to pull out in front of me....... That could have hurt a lot!

I agree with the dogs, very unpredictable! For me though, being a weak swimmer, it's got to be open water sea swims

I agree fully that the possibility of getting hit while biking on the road is quite nerve-shaking. Thanks for sharing these thoughts here at http://www.220triathion.com
