My name is Shaun Cozzens. I am a fourth generation law enforcement professional, husband and father of two. I began cycling at the age of 8 with my father. Eventually, we rode across the country when I was 17 and raised money for organizations dear to our hearts. My son has found a great love for cycling and we started out riding around town. That eventually led to us creating an Instagram page for us to document our endeavors. Numerous training sessions and a few triathlons later, we have decided to put our training and bonding time towards an extremely important cause. As we all know, mental health, PTSD, addiction and depression are prevalent in today’s world. As First Responders, there seems to be a stigma and lack of ability to discuss these issues; yet the industry requires us to deal with numerous traumatic events daily. Suicide rates are at an all time high. Unfortunately, these deaths are not seen as “line of duty deaths”, which eliminates all financial support to the surviving family. Even line of duty deaths place the surviving family members into financial hardship. Our goal is to raise money through donations to help provide financial support to the children and families of First Responders in these times of need. Thank you for your support.
