I was on a MTB so it was in the late 80s before our roads were paved, working long hours only able to ride after dark with the '80s lousy light and came blasting down a decline then over a slight rise to find myself in the middle of a pack, a couple of bumps and I went down. Gravel road rash was the least of my problems as I was bleeding from what must have been tusk cuts in two spots, thankfully only a 1/4 mile from the house. Another time during the day a heard was crossing the road with piglets which makes the sows very protective and I stopped at least 50 yards away and the sows let me know that was way too close and I retreated quickly. Good friends managing a dude ranch near Sasabe lost a full grown male boxer bleeding to death from javelina, in the spring so all figured sows protecting the piglets. My rides these days through a retirement community has pigs occasionally in the parks and wash crossings but they seem less wary of people/dog walkers but folks know to stay clear.
