CT United Ride Rumbles across Post Road as 9/11 Tribute Tours Connecticut
Members of the CT United Ride head over Post Road on Route 33 as they headed for Wilton this afternoon. The annual ride featured thousands of motorcycles from across the region and was nearly 45 minutes long as it motored through local communities. Starting at Sherwood Island, the ride continued through Fairfield County until it ended at Seaside Park in Bridgeport. The bikers were escorted by dozens of law enforcement and first response motorcycles, including Westport Police, Fire, and EMS personnel. Community members lined the routes throughout the State to wave flags and pay respect to the motorcade on the 20th anniversary of the World Trade Center attacks.
The first ride was held on September 30th, 2001 and has continued and grown since then - with all funding collected going towards family emergency relief funds for CT Police Officers, CT Fire Fighters and two local United Ways. WestportLocal.com photo
