What to do with your bike collection when you die? While I applaud all the thoughts about donating to museums, giving to friends/collectors, I'm sorry, but I guess I'm too much of a traditionalist. The bikes are part of the estate and the estate belongs to the heirs. Unless one is really wealthy and the bikes are just a blip on the screen, I believe the first priority is to provide for the folks who I leave on this earth. I've witnessed two such situations since I joined this list. In both cases, listmembers stepped in to help the spouse dispose of the collection. The spouses needed that money. I suspect that is the case for most of the listmembers. And, I don't recall anyone coming forward to take the whole collection from those two spouses and provide a reasonable price. I've told my wife to contact a specific person who has agreed to help her dispose of the bikes. Whether it be me, or one of you hundreds of listmembers, if you are worried about the bikes falling into the wrong hands when one of us passes in the future, then be prepared to come forth and put your money on the table. I can't take it with me and my hope is that my heirs get some enjoyment from the money they recoup when the sale is complete. I seem to be a lone voice on this issue, but that's the way things go sometimes. Lou Deeter, Orlando FL
