Street Portrait @ the 2017 Ride to Remember - Chicago - 7D II - 014

Remembering the Chicago Police Officers who lost their lives in the line of duty.

Now in its 13th year, the Ride to Remember starts at the old Area 4 HQ on the West Side and ends at the Chicago Police Memorial downtown, just east of Soldier Field.

The proceeds from this fundraiser go to the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation which supports the families of slain and catastrophically injured officers.

My wheelchair isn't quite fast enough to keep up with the ride, but I can attend the ceremony at the Chicago Police Memorial and take pictures of that part of the event.

Once the ceremony starts, I'm pretty much stuck in one place and not able to move around like the professional media, so I shoot what I can from my fixed perch.

The participants include local as well as national law enforcement motorcycle club members as well as civilians who support the programs of the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation.

At first glance, some of the participants may look like hardcore bikers, but they are in fact active-duty and retired law enforcement officers who have paid their dues and have lost some of their friends and partners in the line of duty...

For more information on all of the programs and events of the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation, you can go to their website: www.cpdmemorial.org
