Default Funerals

Hypothetical....

Someone dies in a motorcycle wreck.
He has no wife or children.
His mother has always been anti-motorcycle.
She is hysterical at the news of his death and blame everything motorcycle... his riding group, his friends, his motorcycle "I knew that thing would kill him one day"

Given the reaction, would you ride to the funeral?

However, if i was a self absorbed prick who only cared about how I felt about the matter and could give two shits about how his mother felt on the day she buries her son then I would get all my buddies together and in a show of solidarity all ride into the funeral home and do fucking burnouts right in front of the coffin as while some tasty bitches poor beer into the casket.
Screw the mom....
Ride or die
tits or get the fuck out old lady.


We'd probably hire some strippers to give the cadaver a lap dance.

Well done. This is insanely funny to me.

If it was a group ride, then yes. If not then 4 wheels.

It was his life, not his mothers.

No.

Why would you ride? As a tribute? Is there a group ride in his honor? Do it after the funeral.

I wouldn't ride to a funeral under normal circumstances.
