EARLIER this month six local police officers put on their helmets and hopped on their bikes for a two-day journey to Canberra.

The group left at 7am on a crisp Thursday morning to arrive on a Saturday for the Wall to Wall Ride for Remembrance.

Along the way the stopped to catch up with other riders from across the state.

Their first stop was for breakfast at Glen Innes before they rode down the Oxley Hwy to Nabiac to spend the night.

The next morning the men visited the Motorcycle Museum and hit the road again for day two.

A lunch break at Dungog led the officers to meet up with about 100 cops from across the country who were also on their way to the country's capital.

The men followed their route down through Singleton and along the Putty Rd, where they stopped at the famous and motorcycle-friendly Grey Gum Cafe.

Their second night was spent in Richmond and the third day was spent riding through the Blue Mountains.

The officers finally arrived in Canberra after a trip through Goulburn.

Thousands of Australian police officers gathered at the Exhibition Park Epic to begin the convoy to the wall.

Acting Sergeant Shane Ross said the ride was brilliant.

"We drove past Parliament House, from the Canberra convention centre down the memorial," he said.

"It was a surreal feeling to be riding with so many other officers.

"It was a real privilege and honour to pay our respect to other police officers.

"The streets were lined with onlookers."

After the ride, the six men stayed in Belconnen before they turned around to ride back up north.

The next day they visited the war memorial then left to make their way home.

The men weaved up through the mountains and passed Goulburn and Oberon.

After a sleep in Bathurst the officers visited the motoring museum and rode Mount Panorama.

They rode through Tamworth, Sofala and Scone and had a stop at Werris Creek to sleep.

Acting Sgt Ross said although the last day of riding was exhausting, the boys will definitely do it again next year.

"The bug just hits you," he said.

The Wall to Wall remembrance ride is an annual charity bike ride from across Australia to Canberra to remember the fallen and promote motorcycle safety.

It's open to serving and retired members, sworn and unsworn, and all other friends, family and proud supporters of policing.
