ABOUT CHAPTER II
The Police Unity Tour, Inc.
Welcome to the home page for Chapter II of the Police Unity Tour! Chapter II is based in Southern New Jersey.
In 1997, Florham Park (NJ) Police Officer Patrick Montuore had a simple idea: organize a four-day bicycle ride from New Jersey to Washington, DC to raise public awareness about law enforcement officers who have died in the line of duty, and to ensure that their sacrifice is never forgotten. With that, the Police Unity Tour was formed.
What started with 18 riders on a four day fund-raising bicycle ride from Florham Park, NJ to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, D.C. has grown into 8 chapters consisting of nearly 2,100 members nationwide who make the trip annually. Participants include riders, motorcycles, and support personnel.
The journey is long and challenging, but for the Police Unity Tour participants, it is what they prepare for throughout the year. Through fundraising and physical training, they know that their efforts raise awareness of the ultimate sacrifice made by so many law enforcement officers.
The last leg of the journey ends at the Memorial, where the participants are greeted by friends, family, and survivors. Once there, many Police Unity Tour members present remembrance bracelets worn on their wrists throughout the journey to the families of the fallen.
In May 2024, the Police Unity Tour was proud to donate $2.2 million to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, bringing our total donations to more than $37.5 million since its inception.
The Police Unity Tour is the sponsor of the National Law Enforcement Museum’s Hall of Remembrance, the Memorial Fund’s Officer of the Month Award, and other special programs.
Chapter II
In 1999, 22 members from Southern New Jersey began Chapter II seeing the need to expand the Unity Tour Family. Since then we have grown from 22 to over 200+ members.
Each year we depart from a southern New Jersey town and continue on with stops in Delaware and Maryland. On the last day we merge with Chapter I (North Jersey) and renew our partnership by riding together to the National Law Enforcement Officer's Memorial in Washington, D.C.
Chapter II starts each year by completing a memorial ride in honor of a fallen brother or sister. In 2022 we will continue that tradition by riding from NJ to Washington, DC.
We are all proud to be part of the Police Unity Tour and we are humbled by the opportunity to "RIDE FOR THOSE WHO DIED"®
