I would have told I already know how I'm going to die. I'm going out like John Entwistle of the Who.

"Entwistle died in Room 658 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Paradise, Nevada, on 27 June 2002, one day before the scheduled first show of the Who's 2002 United States tour. He had gone to bed that night with a local stripper, who awoke the next morning to find Entwistle cold and unresponsive. The Clark Countymedical examiner determined that his death was due to a heart attack induced by a cocaine overdose."

A couple years ago mine said out of the blue, “when I retire, I want to move to Arkansas”. My response was “ what the hell for”? she said that when I drop dead, she doesn’t want to be alone and her niece that she practically raised lives in Arkansas.

She retired six months ago. We’ve been in Arkansas for two and a half months now.

I gotta admit, this is some of the best riding I’ve seen in a long time. Definitely beats the hell out of Arizona.

the only answer I could give is
Not sure but it’s not going to be pretty?
has any of you had this talk with your wives?
Only about the burial thing. I told her that when I die I want her to cremate me. When she asked "Why", I told her so she could put my ashes in her douche bag and run me through one more time.

Off the bike? Cash in your life insurance, put you in the ground, and go on living?
As crass as that sounds, that's pretty much it. But, she might be able to reach around him, grab the bars and shut the bike down.

Although if she is a passenger and her husband dies of a heart attack while riding, he may end up dead and she might end up crippled.

“When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like the passenger on the back of his Harley”

You pays yo money and takes yer chances......

In the last couple years around here (within 20 miles), there have
been no less than 4 people killed in falling tree incidents (separate accidents),
two lightning strikes; (two deaths)
rode off a cliff; (one death)
many animal caused deaths.

Haven't heard of a heart attack death accident (while riding)
Can't say it won't happen, but............
