Just a week away until we start our ride from New Jersey!!

  With just a week until we start our ride, imagining the starting line is now become more clear.  It has
been a challenging year as far as getting some outdoor training time in.  The weather here in Western Washington has not been kind to bicyclists!  We get out as much as we can to do group rides, but most of our training this year has been on our own at the gym in spin classes or at home with our bikes set on trainers.

With all of our fundraising coming to a halt, we have completed our goal of raising over $15,000 that all goes to the Police Unity Tour!
  So here we go, five members of the Pierce County Sheriff's department, one member from the Tacoma Police department, one member from the Monroe Police department and one support member who is from Deputy Kent Mundell's family all riding in and supporting this great event.


  And to top it off for this year, we will have a reporter from KING 5 news that will be following us along on our trek to DC.  Her news story will be broadcast shortly after we attend the Candle Light vigil on May 13th.

  So I pledge to do my best to get on here each night after the ride to post up new pictures and video from that day.  I will be wearing a Garmin Verb action camera on my helmet and will have a GroPro camera I will be moving around to the bikes of my fellow teammates.  So stay tuned and Thank you for checking out our Team Blog!
