A charity motorcycle signed by a who’s who list of Country artists, including Taylor Swift, Tim McGraw and Dolly Parton, was stolen along with its trailer over the weekend in Kentucky.
 
According to AOL’s The Boot, the pink 2010 Harley-Davidson Sportster was valued at $15,000, even without the custom paint job and autographs. It was to be auctioned off to benefit the local Lexington, Ky., office of Susan G. Komen for the Cure. The bike and the trailer were expected to raise close to $100,000 at the foundation’s Race for the Cure on Oct. 16.
 
The trailer housing the bike was secured by chains in the organization’s parking lot. However, employees found it missing when they returned to work on Monday morning.
 
The Susan G. Komen for the Cure organization raises awareness and funds for breast cancer research and early detection efforts.
