Police Unity Tour Kicked Off In Belmar Pedaling To Washington DC For Charity
Hey Rat Rockers Gotts here and God Bless the local and even out of state law enforcement. I got myself up early morning to not only give a shout out to our local police but to show my love and support and a thank you. Today the brave men and women that carry a badge are riding or should I say pedaling to Washington DC from NJ.
Yes you are reading that right, by car its about 3 and 1/2 hours and it’s also 203.5 MILES ! The Police that are taking part of this are not just from Jersey too I met a bunch of police that were from Detroit and even from California as well that were part of the Highway Patrol to show how much this means to all.
The police riders will be doing this not just in one day, tonight they should be stopping in Atlantic City to give the legs a rest. Now the primary purpose of the “Police Unity Tour” is to raise awareness of Law Enforcement Officers killed in the line of duty.
The secondary reason is to raise funds for the family’s and National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial and Museum. This awesome ride started at Belmar Pavilion on 5th ave and a lot of love and support from the locals right here in Jersey were out there for them before they kicked up their kickstands.
I estimated and heard a count of about 550 male and female police officers took off about 7 am this morning and it was a beautiful send off for them. I want to wish the all the riders a safe and amazing ride, and may the wind be at their backs and keep pushing them forward. God Bless
Thank you for reading and as always thank you for always rocking out with me and 95.9 The Rat- Gotts
