CNY Gearing Up For The Brothers Forever Ride

Utica, NY (WIBX) - A motorcycle ride honoring the memory of a fallen Utica Police Officer is about to get off the ground. The "Brothers Forever Ride" supports the Thomas Lindsey Foundation program targeting local at risk youths.

A post ride celebration is planned, with performance by the band "Simple Props". Other events and a prize give away are also planned.
