Two weeks to the day!!...With overwelming support from the IAFF.
Two weeks from today, the ride will be rolling! The White Rock fire fighters are very appreciative of their fellow brothers and sisters from across the country. "Within the last couple of days, more and more locals have contacted Shore2Shore to offer their support as we make our way across the country", says White Rock fire fighter Eric Kameka. As of right now, the Shore2Shore crew has been coordinating with Halifax, Kirkland Lake, Thunderbay, Dryden, Winnipeg, Swift Current, Canmore, Hope, Abbotsford and West Vancouver. Thanks for all the support so far!The Shore and Shore2Shore.....It just makes sense!!

There will be brief stops every hour as well as a police escort the entire way to ensure the safety of all riders.
There are several options to get involved and join the ride. All levels of donors starting at $1,000, will receive a custom jersey and the opportunity to ride with the team. Donors of $2,500 and up qualify for the following women’s or men’s road bike: $2,500 – Allez X3/Dolce X3, $5,000 – Allez Sport/Dolce Sport V, $7,500 – Ruby Elite/Roubaix C2, $10,000 – Amira Comp /Tarmac, $50,000+ – Amira/Tarmac SL3 DA.
