In Where nomads live, there are many people having dogs. This dog is big and full of fighting sprit. I heard that many Tibetan also get bite.
遊牧民の生活圏では 犬がよく飼われてる。こいつらやたらとデカイ。しかも獰猛で、チベタンも良く噛まれるらしい。


The second day since I left Ganze. I cycled by a small community as normal days. There were Tibet dogs, and they tried to attack me.
ガンゼを出発し、何気なく通り過ぎた集落にもチベット犬がいて、いつものように襲いかかってこようとしていた。


Usually, dogs were on a leash but not today....
普通は鎖につながれていて安心なんだが、この日ばかりは違っていた。


There were a couple of Tibet dogs without leash!!
チベット犬2匹。鎖につながれてない！！


They were running toward me like a super car and attacked my rear side bag.
猛烈な勢いで自転車に突進して来て、リアのサイドバックをガブリ！


I had a stick but couldn't make enough time to take out. The force of the dog had a enough power for me to fall down.
携帯している棍棒を取り出す暇もなく、そのすごい力で自転車ごと転倒。。


I though I would be killed.
この時は「ヤラレル！！」と思った。


Suddenly, the second dog attacked the first dog that bite my bag like trying to steel food. Then they eventually lost their interest of me.
すると、2匹目が1匹目と獲物を取り合いするかのように喧嘩を始め、俺の事なんかそっちのけ。


I run away while they were fighting.
この隙にスタコラサッサとその場を離れ


So...I'm okay..
そういうわけで、無傷です。


But, my side bag got a hole.
でも、リアのサイドバックに穴があいた(T_T)


Actually, I got my bag bite by dogs 3 times total in north west of Ganze province.
実際、ガンゼ北西部で犬にバックを噛まれたのはこれまで合計3回。


I really want to tell anybody cycling Tibet "to watch out Tibet dogs!"...especially where nomads live..
チベット地区を旅行する時は、犬に本当に気を付けましょう。特に遊牧民の生活圏。


By the way, seemed throwing rocks is most affective.
ちなみに、石を投げるのが一番効果的みたい。
