The San Pablo and Richmond police departments recently joined forces to welcome cyclists from Law Enforcement United National, who are in the midst of an 800-mile memorial ride across California.

The eight-day journey aims to support the families of fallen officers and esnure their service is remembered.

Local law enforcement hosted a ceremony to honor officers who died in the line of duty, such as San Pablo Officers Robert Wheeler and Ken Zink, and Sergeant Dave Neece. The event included a wreath presentation, a prayer, and a moment of silence. 

Watch a brief video of the cyclists’ visit to the Richmond Police Department here. Follow progress from “The Long Ride” on Facebook.
