Fire Bike...

Bikes have been used for many things since their invention - law enforcement, delivery, war, of course transportation and racing, but this is a first for me. I had never seen one adapted to a fire fighting purpose until today. Volunteers to haul hose up Highway 39?

    Now that has piqued my interest. The article suggests they were only ever used on your side of the world. I need to do some research and see if that's true.
