Biker dies from excitement
A sad and bizarre tale from the BBC News. A 71 year old new biker was so excited about getting his first bike that he 'died from excitement' whilst riding it.

Re: Biker dies from excitement
Very sad, but, perversely funny at the same time
 I really am becoming terribly unfeeling in my old age !!

Re: Biker dies from excitement
I know how he felt, the only difference being I was 60 years younger and missed the heart attack bit.

Re: Biker dies from excitement
Give's a new twist to those obituaries stating "he died doing what he loved best, riding his bike".
A strangely sad, yet heart-warming tale. RIP dude. |

'least he died smiling
 Bit of a p155er he was old on a 125 though... Imagine what he would've been like on a Busa  RIP |

Re: Biker dies from excitement
Sad story yet somewhat heartwarming too....
I can imagine his wife saying to him in heaven - "told you not to get one of those damn things!!"
