A team of Chattanooga Police officers are embarking on a 270-mile cycling tour to honor all law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty and remember the survivors left behind.
The Chattanooga Police Department team is participating in the 2021 Law Enforcement United's Road to Hope ride along with other officers from across Tennessee. The CPD team has raised $18,000 for LEU and to support their ride. This year CPD Officers are riding from Clarksville to Chattanooga. This is a change from the traditional routes that the cyclists take which culminates at the Law Enforcement Memorial in Washington D.C.
The change is due to event restrictions currently in place in the nation's capital.
The CPD team departs Police Services Center promptly at 2 p.m. this Sunday.
