He died of a heart attack.
That can happen during any kind of exercise.


But it didn't. He didn't die from running marathons. He died from
MOUNTAIN BIKING. Face the facts!


I have faced the facts.
The fact is, your an idiot.

And if he died hiking, swimming, cutting the lawn or having dinner with
his family therein *we* may ascertain *you* would consider those
activities negative activities... interesting how to attempt to link
things negative to the mountain bike sport.



He didn't. He died from MOUNTAIN BIKING.


But you do indeed accept there are some health benefits to riding a
mountain bike



Yes, but no NET benefit. In otherwise, the disadvantages far outweigh
the advantages.


The same could be said of
leaving the house every day.

Your opinion that a given conclusion is obvious is very nearly worthless

this instance, you have brought nothing to the discussion but a single
hastily formed opinion.



CONSPICUOUSLY ABSENT is YOUR assessment of why he died. OBVIOUSLY, you
are afraid to ADMIT that he died from mountain biking, which he
OBVIOUSLY did.


No, he died of a heart attack.
Idiot.


Make all the claims you wish. In support of that

opinion you must offer objective data & logically sound reasoning. You
have offered neither.

Seems to me this fundamental lack, along with your monomaniacle
androgeny has been mentioned hundreds of times by scores of posters.

found out his share portfolio just crashed 90%.

Mike, you are ignoring the root cause of his death, which is a heart
attack of some form.



Yes, DUE TO MOUNTAIN BIKING.


Due to physical exertion. Any
number of activities involve
the level of physical exertion
involved in mountain biking.



Otherwise per your logic, we can equally say that guy died of LIVING ON
EARTH. Yep, net benefit is dust to dust...

I presume that you are a fat turd that never exercises?
If so, then you also can die due to the excess fat.
If not, then you also can die from a heart attack while doing your
exercise.

Some of your posts make you look like an idiot.
That will not help your cause.


Correct, or even acute mental stress just sitting at a desk can start a
so called heart attack.



But it didn't. He died from mountain biking. You are just afraid to
admit the truth!


Considering the semantic
masturbation you are so keen
on, I would expect you to not
make such a ridiculous
statement. You cannot die from
mountain biking any more than
you can die from walking down
the street.

You missed the point. Several marathons didn't kill him. MOUNTAIN
BIKING did.

It happens all the time! It just happened again. Ride off a cliff, and
then tell me you can't die from mountain biking.
