Dozens of New York City firefighters took part in the annual FDNY Wounded Warrior Bike Ride Sunday morning. 

The ride is an annual event that honors the firefighters who lost their lives in the September 11 terrorist attacks and support U.S. troops overseas. 

The participants will ride from the Freedom Tower in Lower Manhattan to Montauk Point on Long Island in the next two days. 

The money raised will be used to support veterans injured in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
