We arrived in DC on Sunday with cool temperatures and a great headwind courtesy of our fallen brother, Larry (for those who follow this, I also call Larry 'Headwind', as he is always there on my training rides). The city turned out to welcome all the 1700+ tour riders.
Once at the memorial, we learned that thanks to everyone's support, over 1.72 million was raised this year. I say 'over 1.72 million' as during the presentation, the New Jersey Police Benevolent Association added to the total with an addition $25,000 check!!
Thanks again to everyones support this year. A big special thanks to my parents who flew from Arizona to Michigan to watch my son during the school week then drove him to DC so we could all be together during Police Week! And another huge thanks to Paul and Trudie who opened up their beautiful house and hosted us during our stay.
Be safe everyone. Remember Larry and Patrick.
