Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock 2022 is underway this weekend, through to October 7th.

This year, along with 4 other Cops for Cancer tours, Tour de Rock riders will cycle over 1200km across the varied terrains of the Vancouver Island Region, raising money for childhood cancer research & support services at the Canadian Cancer Society.

The tour kicks off in Port Alice Saturday and makes its way to Port Hardy and Port McNeill Sunday, with stops in Campbell River September 27th and the Comox Valley September 28th.

It's not just cops in on the action - with some firefighters getting in on the fun.

As well, Robin Campbell with Cups for Cancer, a big community supporter for years, will be along for the ride.
