That was the quote from the coroner after the unfortunate passing of a 71 year old man who, according to the coroners verdict, literally died of excitement whilst riding his motorbike for the first time.

Full Story at BBC...

You're probably wondering what kind of adrenaline-pumped machine he was riding that excited him to the extent that he died. Well, so was I so I found out. It was a truly fearsome 125cc Honda Pantheon scooter, which, in case you were wondering, is learner legal and develops a jaw-dropping 13.5bhp.

You'd best shield your eyes if you're pregnant or of a nervous disposition.
