Don't let your first ride in a Hearse be your last.

Something similar to a hearse seen in Quebec City this summer. The owner's message is that he's going to ride until he dies...

There's one in the Southern California area also. It was used to carry a brother LEO last year in San Diego. We had motorcycle cop escort and an almost 5 mile long LEO motorcade. It was an awesome sight with the flag draped coffin showing through the windows on the carriage...

I guess if you've got to go, that's going in style.

Two things you ALWAYS wanna be late for:
Your own wedding
Your own funeral
If you MISS both those, you'll be doin' good.

God bless the man who passed on. But what an awesome show of the family you become a part of when you buy a bike. Bet it was very impressive.

That would truly be going out in style. Yeah, but I just told the OL to have me cremated and throw the ashes out in the backyard. I'm not a real formal kind of guy.

cerk4, Tombstone Hearse Company is the place you want to get in touch with (tombstonehearse.com). Cournoyer Funeral Home in Jaffrey NH has one in. Got it about a year or so ago. I've talked with the guy, and may end up riding the thing once in awhile for services. They used it this past summer for a soldier/cop who was killed on his bike by a drunk driver. Guy survived 2 tours and then gets whacked in his own town! Got pics of the rig with the flag draped coffin during the PGR mission we did. (yes, I had permission!)
