Scenes from 7th Annual Heroes Ride

May 16, 2019

A record turnout helped make PPOA’s 7th Annual Heroes Ride a memorable and meaningful tribute to fallen officers and military veterans. More than 400 riders from throughout Southern California took part in the cruise from the Hollywood Bowl to the L.A. National Cemetery for a veterans tribute, then on to the Biscailuz Training Center for a finish-line party. We are grateful to the Sheriff’s Department and our many volunteers, sponsors and vendors for making this incredible day possible. Most importantly, we are eternally grateful for the service and sacrifice of America’s fallen heroes.
