My young friend Marlon and I attended and extremely special motorcycle ride today to raise money for the family of Damien Garcia, a Cape Coral motorcycle policeman, hit by a car while in the line of duty, and now lying in a coma at Lee Memorial Hospital.
Registration began at 9:00 am at Victory Lane Cafe on Hancock Bridge Parkway and the 200 bike ride started promptly at 11:00, winding through the majority of Cape Coral, past the police and fire stations, where we were cheered with numerous screaming sirens and ended at Geo's Italian Restaurant on Pine Island Road. Christian rock band "A Matter of Faith" entertained the crowd of approximately 350 while they enjoyed free pizza, courtesy of the folks at Geo's.
Please keep Officer Garcia and his family in your prayers and anyone wishing to donate, please contact the Cape Coral Police Department.
