I am riding an extended bike trip. I've already been attacked by multiple dogs. I applied for a concealed carry permit but I don't want to delay my trip in the meantime. Can I carry in an unlocked case on my bicycle without my license to carry concealed? Would a bicycle be sufficient to be considered a vehicle?

Re: feetwet's comments: the state laws are in Chapter 790.
My point - more of a comment than a legal answer, which is covered by reading the state laws above - is that you're not very smart to appear to be preparing to shoot a dog that may be endangering you sometime in the future. The legal ramifications of discharging a firearm, killing/injuring a dog and endangering people in the area are greater than the penalties of flaunting CCW laws (esp. if you are a felon); see the same link to Chapter 790 above.
The proof you will need to show that the said dog was sufficiently endangering you in terms of your own injuries or life to shoot it and endanger people in the area will have to be very convincing to a court.
Get a can of pepper spray (again, as per Chapter 790, less than two ounces) and carry it in full view in a holder on the frame of the bike. Much research and statistics show that pepper spray is much more effective in deterring dogs (and people) than bullets from an aiming and accuracy (read success) standpoint. Or carry a home-made spray bottle of ammonia/water; that is very effective and perfectly legal.
Pepper spraying a dog won't get you thrown in jail. Shooting one may. And, aside from all that: knowing the propensity of citizens to carry guns and use them, shooting a dog may encourage someone to shoot back at you.

Not a remotely helpful response. Assuming I am "not very smart" is also rude. I do not have a particular dog in mind nor would I fire a gun into a busy residential neighborhood. I am referring to very rural areas where randomly dogs come running out at me. I carry bear spray as well but in this particular circumstance the dog was 20 yards away chasing after my 6 year old daughter. I am trained to use my firearm and would not fire it to risk anyone else's life. I simply was looking for a legal opinion whether a bicycle qualified as a vehicle

Cade: "I simply was looking for a legal opinion whether a bicycle qualified as a vehicle." OK, simply ask that. Try deleting the line "I've already been attacked by multiple dogs" from your question and see how it reads. My point is that all anyone knows here is exactly what you write; you mention being attacked by dogs and going on a bike trip and wanting to know if you could carry a gun on a bike without waiting for your CWP and if a bike is a vehicle. So what does all that add up to?
