"This was taken while I was in Port Au Prince with four other firefighters. We went down as a medical relief team. While in country our job was to go around the city to the make shift tents cites and look for injured people. We would treat who we could and transport the most serious to local hospitals. In nine days our team treated over 1,000 people. On our second day, the place we were staying at asked if any of our team could ride motorcycles. Of course we said yes, all of us in our group are motorcyclist and we weren't going to pass up the opportunity to ride through the streets of the city. We were given three brand new Kayak 125cc to use for our stay and we were unleashed to the streets. Once we learned that the only traffic rule was to honk before you did something (no matter how crazy), it was smooth sailing. We went down to Haiti to help in some small way and to be able ride the streets among the people of Haiti was something I will always remember." - Kevin Denton of Port Angeles, Wash.
