Eustis Police Chief Craig Capri finished his memorial ride to Ground Zero Tuesday and again shared photos exclusively with Inside Lake. Capri cycled for four days, leaving from Boston with Tour De Force NY to honor those lost Sept. 11, 2001. These photos are from the final leg of the trip; the group rode 46 miles from Melville, New York and ended their journey at Ground Zero. “Never forget those who made the ultimate sacrifice,” Capri said.
