An it was just a COINCIDENCE that he dies while mountain biking? Sure.
Idiot.


As a matter of fact yes it was just a concidence he was doing something
he loved doing when he had the heart attack.

No, it was no coincidence, obviously. Mountain biking was the
proximate cause of his heart attack.

And, by the way, it makes no difference to anyone that he was doing
something he loved (having a heart attack?) or hated when he died. It
doesn't make him any more or less dead. DUH!

But it does make you more stupid when you assert that bike riding caused his
corronary heart disease.

It's only obvious to you, but you are an idiot.

Blaming a bike for corronary heart disease is like blaming the shoe because
it has dog **** on the bottom. Granted, if the guy had not ridden his bike
that day, the chunk that fell off of his aeorta and clogged a valve would
have fallen off instead while watching TV or bringing in a bag of groceries,
but by the same token you could have stepped in dog **** while barefoot.

Keep in mind that the article YOU posted clearly stated that the guy on the
bike was not well, and the other guy in the story was hiking when his heart
attack happened. So, hiking causes heart attacks. Indeed, it seems to be
"perfectly designed" to do just that.

What a dip **** you are ...

"Post hoc is a particularly tempting error because temporal sequence
appears to be integral to causality. The fallacy lies in coming to a
conclusion based solely on the order of events, rather than taking
into account other factors that might rule out the connection."
