The End of Watch ride, led by former Sheriff Jagrut Shah, puts six motorcyclists on a 22,300 mile, 84 day, cross country ride visiting cities where officers were lost in the line of duty.
"I wanted to bridge this gap that we share and bring back to the department and let the officers and their families know that their loss has not been forgotten," Shah said.
