About Tour de Rock

The Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock is an exhilarating annual event where police and emergency service personnel ride for 14 days, covering 1,200 km across Vancouver Island. This effort raises funds for childhood cancer research and support services through the Canadian Cancer Society.

Since its inaugural ride in 1997, Tour de Rock has flourished thanks to the dedication of volunteers and community partners from Port Alice to Victoria. We are thrilled to continue our mission in 2024!

Tour de Rock is committed to supporting children and families affected by cancer.
