New biker, 71, died of excitement

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

as the article says - "In some ways, what a way to go."

Exactly. His wife had died not long before, and he died doing something he had always wanted to do.

Sad for the rest of his family left behind though.

And, don´t forget: It´s an innovative way to go.
And it has style.
It´s better than the death of a mate´s father, who suffered a stroke while trying too hard to tackle a constipation on the loo.

Or that hardcore-vegan who suffocated from the gasses he produced while sleeping in a small chamber.

Or all the peeps who gained a Darwin award.

Rest in peace, Sir!

I think it was the wife reaching out from beyond. ;D

I wouldn't have sold him the bike for this exact reason! :eek:

Well, as long as he's somewhere happy now.
