Welcome to the 5T Riders Bike4Chai Page

Team 5T Riders

This summer, the 5T Riders will have the opportunity to partake in a life-changing event: a 180-mile bike ride through New Jersey, the Pocono Mountains, and Upstate NY. This is no ordinary ride; it’s an exhilarating cycling event ending at Camp Simcha, a remarkable overnight camp that provides seriously ill children with a vacation from sickness, restoring their spirits and renewing their determination to fight.

Life for a child with cancer or other serious illness is grueling; Chai Lifeline’s flagship programs, Camp Simcha and Camp Simcha Special, offer 430 children a chance to forget about illness and just be kids again. Camp is an oasis of fun, of joy, and of peace for children experiencing dark and turbulent times. To learn more about Camp Simcha and Camp Simcha special, visit campsimcha.org.

This year’s ride is even more thrilling than past years’ rides: it’s a landmark ride, the 10th Bike4Chai! We will depart on the two-day ride of a lifetime to camp on Wednesday, August 14, 2019. Our objective is to raise $400,000 by then, and we hope you will help us reach this goal. All donations are 100% tax-deductible.

The 5T Riders represent the greater Five Towns of Nassau County including Lawrence, Woodmere, Hewlett, Cedarhurst, Inwood and also North Woodmere, Atlantic Beach and Far Rockaway too. Basically many of the communities situated on Long Island's South Shore. We enjoy riding together as a crew. We are comprised of over 100 riders and participate in various cycling events ,including charitable endeavors, throughout the year.

Thank you for supporting us and, in doing so, helping children and their families cope with the diagnosis, treatment, and aftermath of serious pediatric illness.

Best Regards,
Team 5T Riders
