great day was had by all, Mike was delivered in a wicker coffin in the back of a Land Rover defender, he was escorted by 30+ bikes from 1930 BSA Y13 to Yamaha drag star, good turn out at church and back to the yard after.  even the sun stayed out. RIP Mike

escorted by 30+ bikes, in the back of a Land Rover, even the sun stayed out

Made me visualize the scene, seems like a memorable way to leave this life (and who knows, maybe go on to the next...)!
I did not know this person, but thanks for posting.
