“Aaaaand they’re off ๐ดโโ๏ธ๐ด
The New Bedford Police Unity Cycling Team is participating in the 2024 Police Unity Tour to continue to raise awareness for law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty. Our cycling team includes officers from the NBPD as well as officers from surrounding towns.
Every May, the team drives to Florham Park, New Jersey. Then, for the next four days, team members pedal their bicycles 320 miles, riding an average of six to eight hours a day to Washington, D.C. to kick off National Police Week at the National Law Enforcement Memorial. This moving procession is followed by several events, including an emotional candlelight vigil in the center of Washington, D.C. honoring fallen brother and sister officers.
We couldn’t be more proud of our brothers and sisters as they honor their fallen comrades. Ride safe friends! ๐๐ค”-City of New Bedford Police Department.
