The mountain bikers may hold there own - just ask my horse Major. "Bikes? Very Scarey! You go first! They're Arab-eaters!" They'll be hard to beat.
Heck, they should thank us for the manure. It will encourage plant growth to stabilize the soil in that area. <grin>
As for hunters/deer. What about when the buck deer fight back? Yikes!! My old mare (Arab, chestnut, 14.2H) was chased by a buck who kept making weird grunting noises during rutting season. We kept riding as fast as we could to get away from him. When the buck finally recognized me as human on her back, he veered off. My old App was scared by a deer popping out of a corn field & stopped dead. He was then blind-sided by the deer's buddy! Me, Kidd and the deer ended up in a 6' deep ditch scrambling for our lives. Kidd was never the same about deer (mentally) again. PROTECT US from the wild deer! They can be dangerous if we share trail with them too!

Subject: RC: IMPORTANT! "NO HORSES" say hikers in PA
We (equestrians) are just too nice. I say lets take advantage of our speed,
height and weight and may the best man/woman & horse win. I see no challenge
whatsoever from the hikers and the 4-wheelers will eventually run out of gas.
And don't be afraid of the hunters. This deer shoots back.
