TSUNAMI: BIKE LOST IN JAPAN FOUND IN CANADA

The Harley-Davidson motorcycle was discovered by Peter Mark on 18 April on the coast of an island in British Columbia. Mr Mark said it was caked with "a lot of corrosion, a lot of rust", but that he could see the manufacturer's distinctive logo.

 

The Canadian realised that the bike could be part of the tsunami debris after he noticed that licence plate was from Miyagi prefecture, the area hardest hit by the March 2011 disaster.
Mr Yokoyama's bike was inside a large white container he was using
as a storage shed, which eventually washed away, leaving the bike partially buried in sand.

 
"This is unmistakably mine,"

told Nippon TV when shown photos of the motorcycle. "It's miraculous."
He told the Japanese TV station NHK that he wished
to thank the man who found it personally.
