It's always sad when a parent has the misfortune of having to bury his/her offsprings. A few years ago, my best friend's (the one who lends me his Duc SS800) mom passed away after years of struggle against liver disease. At the funeral, looking at my buddy's grandpa touching the coffin was enough to cause me having watery eyes (yes, even Chewy cried when Han-solo was carbon-frozen).
This is why I am always extra, extra, extra careful and paranoid about safety when riding.
