LOS ANGELES—A group of motorcyclists began a cross-country ride to New York City on Aug. 30 from the Los Angeles Fire Department’s training center to honor the memory of the first responders who lost their lives while trying to save others during the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Ralph Terrazas and Fire Hogs Motorcycle Club president Jack Wise were on hand to kick off the ride at about 6:30 a.m. at the Frank Hotchkin Memorial Training Center in Elysian Park.
