Who cares if you don't like it or think it's stupid. The guy was buried the way he wanted to be buried. Good for him.

I didn't find it offensive, I found it a stupid oversimplification of who/what we are. We are not a country of people from all over that cling to their old countries traditions and languages. We are a country of people that abandoned our old country, learned a common language and developed our own traditions and values. If my family clung to it's old traditions I would have to get a big oven in my back yard and burn Jews. I really would prefer not to do that. Although as an interesting side note, John Demjanjuk was my back yard neighbor.

If it was his request its kind of selfish i think. If its something the family thought they had to do to help themselves with his passing i guess thats a different story. If i go this body is just a vessel and i will be done with it, so really i dont care what the family wants to do with me. I already told the wife get rid of me the cheapest way possible and don't spend money to have a funeral, throw a party instead. And sell all my shit and take a vacation or buy something nice. Funerals are one of the biggest scams in life (or death if you look at it that way)why in the hell does it cost thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars to(for lack of a better term)dispose of a body? I know everyone deals with death differently but if somone waste money on my passing ill come back to haunt them.

Hey Fellas, name is Noel. New to this forum, looking forward to meeting some of you guys this season. Riding a 2008 ZX6R in Matte Black for this year.

You won't read about this in the motorcycle magazines. How the AMA lost millions of dollars and 28% of its members. http://www.theridesofar.com/2014/02/the-decline-of-the-ama/

I'd be in if the dates planned fit all right.

Highly recommend the ARC. I took it last year and loved it.

People tend to severely over-use the term "racist" and "racism." Racism is the belief that a given race is inferior. That is a far cry from making jokes that imply stereotypes are true. I maintain that stereotypes are not always (or even normally) racist. They may be derogatory, but I have said many derogatory things about people without believing they're inferior beings. Furthermore, many stereotypes are positive; at least unless you consider having rhythm insulting...

Ops!

People are awful quick to pull the race card these days.

You racist! Lol

This is the correct answer. He paid for that bike, built all the stuff ahead of time. His stuff, his funeral and his money. Having just buried my mother in law I can tell that everyone was only concerned with meeting her wishes. It's the right thing to do.

as one who has met you, I could never accuse you of being self loathing..

That is entirely untrue because there is not a single person I hate based on their race alone. I hate people based on their attitudes and actions no matter where they are from, what color their skin is or whatever religion they do or don't believe in. Now if you were to say I can be overly stereotypical well then yea that is true

people say that all the time, but it makes no sense. You dont' want to die doing something you love, because you'd rather continue doing that activity. It's better to die doing something you hate, because then you can at least momentarily think, "well at least I don't have to keep clipping my dog's nails," or whatever it is that you're hating. I was gutted when I heard Tommy died. Kind of ruined the super bowl for me, actually. Tommy was one of the first guys I ever rooted for when I started following AMA racing. This will sound childish and dumb, but I got a kick out of Tommy retweeting something I said about the Graves guys regretting not renewing his contract when Tommy did a wildcard ride in the Daytona 200 a few years back. He was the type of guy who would "like" your facebook post when you put up motorcycle-related pictures, even though he was a pro rider, and you were just goofing off on a 10 yr old 600... I also had a brief facebook conversation with Tommy when they got snow in CA, and he and his younger brother were posted pics of their snowball fight. Just an all around nice kid, who happened to be pretty damn fast as well. Rest in peace.

The duster; it's like a jacket, only longer, thicker, and far more badass.

But epa nightmare... Fuck your sealed casket and vault... Think about the widdle trees man

Spring cant come soon enough.

Poll updated. Disregard question 1. I have updated the title of this thread as well. this will be for the spring ride only. We will start another thread for the fall ride. You might have to delete your vote to be able to vote again. Just hit the delete me vote button under the poll. After date is selected a new thread will be started with a poll for leads/sweeps. That will the the official tally thread.

The guy that won the fucking lobster...his life peaked at that moment. It's all downhill from here.

I doubt there will be epa headaches through a sealed casket

Sad. Waste of a vintage bike, waste of riding gear, waste of money, waste of time, and a waste of good land. Cremation. It's cheap, it's simple, and easy for the family to share you

Your grandmother is going to grab you by the ear and haul you around by it and yell at you.

What does christianity have to do with running a business?
