PLEASANT HILL, CA —The Pleasant Hill Police Department now will patrol city parks and trails biker-style via a new DualSport Suzuki motorcycle, purchased in a partnership with the Pleasant Hill Recreation and Park District.
Lauded by manufacturers as an "all-around, do-anything, go-anywhere bike," the motorcyle will enable officers to reach locations not easily accessed by patrol cars, police said.
"We recognize that our patrol cars aren't always capable of reaching locations for enforcement or service," officers said. "And this motorcycle will help us to patrol the parks and trails more frequently and efficiently."
