Welcome to the home page for Chapter II of the Police Unity Tour! Chapter II is based in Southern New Jersey. In May 1997 the Police Unity Tour Inc. was organized by Officer Patrick P. Montoure of the Florham Park Police Department, with the hope of bringing public awareness of Police Officers who have died in the line of duty and to honor their sacrifices. We started in 1997 with 18 riders on a four day fund raising bicycle ride from Florham Park, NJ to the National Law Enforcement Police Officers Memorial in Washington D.C. and raised $18,000.00. This year we had over 1,100 members nationwide who made the trip and we are proud to announce that we were able to donate 1.3 Million Dollars to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund bringing out total donations to nearly 7 Million Dollars. In late 2005, the Police Unity Tour pledged $5 Million in support of the National Law Enforcement Museum. Inspired by our commitment and our Motto, "WE RIDE FOR THOSE WHO DIED"®, the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund has selected our organization to be the sponsor of the Museum Hall of Remembrance. Chapter IIIn 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 leave from Mays Landing, in Southern New Jersey, and continue on with stops in Delaware, and Maryland, where 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 2010 we continued that tradition by riding from Mays Landing to Atlantic City to honor all of their fallen. 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!" Please take the time to look through our website. The membership page offers you the opportunity to register to participate with us in either a rider or rider support position. Mission StatementThe primary purpose of the Police Unity Tour is to raise awareness of Law Enforcement Officers who have died in the line of duty.
The secondary purpose is to raise funds for the National Law Enforcement Officer's Memorial and Museum.
