Just a fine example of irony. (http://news.yahoo.com/ny-motorcyclist-dies-ride-protesting-helmet-law-143217859.html)

Can you find other examples of irony like this or similar?

That is pretty neat. It'll be even more irony if they have the same ride next year, but name it after the person who died. Make it a memorial ride against the helmet law. :roll2

I wanna know if the guy had been drinking before riding because to be honest, fishtailing a Harley and then flipping over it's bars isn't even all that easy to manage. They're pretty stable due to their sheer size and tyre width. Either way ironic yes.

I had a bowl of sarcasm for breakfast. It tasted IRON-y.

That's true. I hadn't thought about it, but going over the top of the handle bars on a Harley is pretty darn hard to do, even on purpose. I wonder if it fish tailed, and then high sided.

It's a little different, but would have similar results. Maybe the article just got it terminology wrong.

I rode a Ferrous Wheel once. It was pretty IRONy as well.
