In a post mortem examination, the pig was described as "delicious".

He's just sleeping

Looks like the one going downhill was on the wrong side of the road....

Any news on the condition of the bike?

Was one of the best descenders in the world. At 60 I doubt that claim would hold much water.

That wild pig obviously didn't make the 'calculation'.

Great bit of social media tbh. Fair play!

Next time I come across a dead animal while cycling I'll have do something similar and #instagramthe****outofittoo

I'll need a selfie stick though, being solo a lot.

Probably a really long one too

Could have been worse... could have pulled a pig... gets coat and swiftly leaves:)

I'd have thought that claim holds rather a lot of water. But that is just my largely unqualified opinion

Kelly's wife said he always brings home the bacon .

I once came across a dead horse coming from Gleencree. I'' big enough to get away with that but Eve thought of it

Once the farmer utters the magic words, "That'll do, pig, that'll do." Boom, sausages.

Just add some onion and soft boil for a couple of hours. It'll be grand.

Wonder what the wife thinks of it..... 😉

For some reason I pictured Goeffrey Boycott when I read that!

(Suppose it could have been Beasty also!)
