The race is on! The 2nd annual Bike4Chai kicked off this morning with bikers gathering at the starting lines in Lakewood and Deal. The bike-a-thon boasts 100 cyclists from Brooklyn, Lakewood, Deal, Monsey, the Five Towns and beyond. As we speak, the lead pack has passed the 75 mile marker!
The trek from the Jersey Shore to Camp Simcha in Glen Spey, NY is a massive undertaking indeed. The first day, riders will traverse 112 miles over eight hours, scale 6,000 feet, pedal 172,800 times and burn 5,500 calories. The group hopes to raise $500,000 for our amazing program. We are looking forward to greeting them in Camp Simcha Special tomorrow.
