NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Police say a $40,000 motorcycle was stolen in Brooklyn Friday morning.
Brandon Hochman rode from Los Angeles to New York for charity; but before he could ride back to California, police say his custom motorcycle was stolen in Williamsburg.
“They someone cracked the steering lock and rolled it out of here,” Hochman said. “There’s no hiding this bike. It’s custom 360, all chromed out, one-of-a-kind.”
I’m stranded in New York. My custom made motorcycle was lifted from the streets of Brooklyn. Farmers had fixed the bikes fractured frame and a quarter pound of pepper plugged its popped radiator. Despite its difficulties it had brought me to the starting point of the fourth annual Ride4Humanity charity run, and now it was most likely being scrapped for parts. After almost a month of searching I was about to accept the fact that this year I wouldn’t be able to take part in the ride from New York to Los Angeles. Read it in HotBike Magazine
