A good friend of mine from work died last Thurs. He was 47 and had a heart attack on Friday they put a stint in to help and let him go home on Wed. to recoup. He stopped by Strokers have a Coke and to say hi to his friends and up date them. His girl friend took him home and he said he was tired and was going to take a nap on the sofa. He laid down and she went to get him up to move into bed around 930 and he was gone. John was a great guy to work with and also a biker. In his obituary in the paper it listed his favorite things as riding his Big Dog m/c and double Crown and Cokes (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif) He hung out at Strokers bar here in Dallas. It may sound familiar to you because that is the one Rick Fearless of Texas Hardtails TV show owns and they film at. I gues his hearse is getting a chopper escort to the grave site. This should be one of the more interesting things I have been to.

Yes. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
But not the type your refering to. Bout 20 yrs ago I was hardcore into MC RR. One of my best friends was as well, and we competed on the same Bike and in the same classes (the inagural GSXR cup series) as well as squiding around on the streets. During an event at the then SIR race track (now called Pacific Raceways) Jim got out of the saddle crossing the cement drag strip patches and hit the Jersey Barriers that had recently been added. Down he went at pretty high speed as that was the entrance to the front straight. Before he was able to get up and out of the way .. he was struck by another rider accelorating hard, that couldnt get out of the way. The Biker funeral was held at the track, the club planted a tree at the turn so that future spectators could be shaded while watching the events. Because of that crash the "Bus Stop" chicane was added just prior to that turn to slow down the bikes and direct the away from the cement.
