In the span of four days, law enforcement personnel are biking 280 miles from Philadelphia to Washington, DC, to raise awareness about the sacrifices police make nationwide, according to a statement from the Harford County Sheriff's Office.
Approximately 114 bicyclists riding from Delaware and Maryland will put a wreath at the base of the law enforcement officers' memorial in Edgewood on Sunday morning, the statement said.
The Police Unity Tour ride concludes on Monday in Washington, DC, where approximately 1,700 bicyclists will meet at the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, according to the statement.
The unity tour riders will visit the Harford County Sheriff's Office Southern Precinct at 1305 Pulaski Highway at 9 a.m. on Sunday, May 11.
