Description

This film highlights the story of Gerard "Biscuits" Baptiste, a young firefighter assigned to FDNY Ladder 9, who made the ultimate sacrifice saving the lives of others at the World Trade Center on September 11 2001.To commemorate his bravery and his fallen comrades, the surviving members of his unit and the motorcycle community pushed ahead and began the process of restoration of a derelict motorcycle– a 1979 Honda CB750 LTD – that Gerard had purchased only a few weeks before his untimely passing, and intended to restore. The film depicts the restoration process of the FDNY Dream Bike, a culmination of 15 months of work by large corporations, local businesses and individuals who donated time and effort to complete the project.. With rare insights into the lives of New York City firemen, their road to recovery and how they honor their fallen brothers. The filmmakers extend a special thanks to FDNY Engine 220 – Ladder 122 and FDNY Engine 33 – Ladder 9 for their invaluable assistance.
