“A few of our riders are veterans of this event, having completed more than one Tour already. But for many of the riders, it is their first time participating in Tour de North, and for more than one it is their first time spending this much time on a bike. What they have in common, however, is their reason for riding, which is to bring awareness to and help fundraise for childhood cancer research and family support,” states Cpl. Jennifer Cooper, Media Liaison for Cops for Cancer Tour de North.

Over the past 20 years, the Cops for Cancer Tour de North has raised over $3.5 million dollars.
