Bob, 17, and Matthew. 14, Cracknell, who have been racing for the past three seasons are now un- able to replace the bikes. What makes the theft more heartbreaking, is that dirt bikes are not in- surable because they go missing too easily, their fa- ther Kevin explained. The bikes were stolen from a locked garage be- hind the Cochrane Street home sometime after 2 a.m. on October 16. The door of the building had been ripped from its hing- es. The boys' mother had been awake until 2 a.m. and neighbors reported hearing vehicles squeal- ing from the area just after 3a.m. The 1991CR125 Honda, red and white in color, was Bob's bike and was stolen along with a 1994 yellow DS80 Suzuki that the fam- ily was fixing up to sell for a friend. The bikes were valued at $4,000. The boys' father Kevin told the Star that locks on a gate to the backyard and on the bike's race trailer were cut also by the thieves. The racing season was to continue through Octo- ber for the Port Perry teens, but they do not have the money to go out and buy new bikes.
