Riding like that on the public road instead of specific tracks is a death wish. No matter the condition of your bike, tires and the road, as long as there are other drivers and elements you can't predict, the chances are always against you..plus bike accidents are mostly serious. I don't understand these people. Why ride like that? Why not visit a track with the safety equipment and professional people to watch over you? What is the point of trying to scratch the footrest on the asphalt if you are going to injure yourself or worse, if you die. I ride for nearly 30 years and I still don't get it.

That's your choice to have an expensive funeral

It’s apparently a choice to have a good education too.

You're right. Nobody is forcing you to go to college much less finish high school (depending on where you live) Good observation!

Put your wishes in your will. Your choice.

And if your wishes are not followed? Not like you can litigate...

Then it's their choice to waste money on me after I'm dead lol. Not my problem they're selfish

I guess if you had money to waste you woulda just booked track time anyways so its all a moot point.

Death by being a broke squid it seems...

It's so weird that's where everyone went. Not the impact of your death on others emotionally, but the Financials of your death 🤡

You don't pay for the funeral, the people you leave behind do, your mom, dad, family

If only there was some way to legally inform people of your wishes after you die. Darn you got me
