Chapter VIII is based in Florida but we welcome members from all other states. We are proud to have riders and support personnel from Florida, Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, and Georgia (just to name a few). Chapter VIII's inaugural ride was in 2004 when 12 riders and multiple support personnel joined with Virginia's Chapter IV. In 2007 we continued our partnership with Chapter IV, riding over 230 miles from Portsmouth, Virginia to the National Law Enforcement Officer's Memorial in Washington, D.C. to deliver our raised funds. Chapter VIII & VII spearheaded a new route and broke off from Chapter IV for two days of some of the most beautiful and memorable moments of the ride. We then rejoined Chapter IV and made our way to the Pentagon where we joined with Chapter I and rode to the memorial over 1000 strong!In 2008 the Police Unity Tour raised $1.25 Million Dollars with over 1,100 participants. Since 1997, the Police Unity Tour has raised over $5.6 Million Dollars for the National Law Enforcement Officer's Memorial Fund. 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!"
