    We all should toast him for going out the way he lived,
    -since.. at any time when we are doing exactly that, we can be next,
    & which we well know makes life worth risking - in the deed..

    Beats a Schumacher outcome, in my book..

    May the putative god of speed, convey his immortal spirit ( recklessly, on the pillion,@ shit-hole snappin' pace) to motorcycle valhalla..

    I don't subscribe to that and believe anyone who thinks it is karma and a fine thing to "go out" while doing the thing they enjoy - must have been born with a weed-wacker engine in place of a brain.
    No-one......should take pleasure from thinking they will DIE doing what they enjoy doing....dying is bad..dying doing your fave thing is no better if anything..worse. Given a choice..I'd choose to die while say rowing a small dingy from Tasmania to Portugal - with no food or water and a piece of string for a paddle..vs dying riding my bike.

    Cool..

    & FWIW, I don't subscribe to any of that 'belief' or 'karma' bullshit, either..

    Its a matter of how & when.. & maybe it'll be up to you - in some way..

    Re life and death. It comes to all, I just hope mine is a dignified death not screaming like a little girl covered in my own filth or wasting away forgotten and alone still sharp enough to know I am not all there but not sharp enough to look after myself.

    Re the loss of any rider. Tis a loss to our way of life.
    My sympathy to those he left behind.
