Stop looking for gasoline suppliers to sell hydrogen and look for a hydrogen supplier. You might be surprised at how available it is. There isn't a hydrogen supplier every few blocks, but there wasn't a gasoline supplier on every street corner when cars first came out either.
The bike looks sharp, but a cost and efficiency analysis is necessary to determine if it is a winner or loser.

Looks well, but the noise produced by the fosil combustible machines is attractive and get a power sensation of movement...

A couple more things to remember:
If the Crosscage's performance is all it's made out to be, racing teams will be tempted by it. They can provide their own infrastructure, and the fuel-cell design will get a lot of publicity.
Hydrogen can be produced with water and electricity. Somebody who wants this bike bad enough can probably jury-rig or buy a home hydrogen production setup; likewise, areas where both water and electricity are cheap could set up their own infrastructure without worrying about wider distribution networks.
