Event Overview
Challenge Yourself to Change Lives.
There’s nothing like a Best Buddies Challenge. Find out for yourself. Sign up as an individual or form a team with friends and together we will help Best Buddies enhance the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
RIDE
Join us on Saturday, May 31, 2025, and choose to ride 100, 55, or 20 miles with cyclists of all abilities including celebrities, pro-cyclists Mark Cavendish, Cam Wurf, and others. Each route takes riders along scenic, country roads to the beach in Hyannis Port. All rides are fully supported, with rest stops every 25 miles and support vehicles on the road.
RUN OR WALK
For those that don’t ride, our 5K run/walk takes place at Craigville Beach in Hyannis Port. Enjoy a jog with friends, or go for a new personal best. The walk is the perfect Challenge for families with small children.
Celebrate
After your event, grab a massage and enjoy a finish line celebration including a lobster clambake, open bar, and private concert. Past musical guests include The Black Eyed Peas, Joan Jett, the B-52’s, The Beach Boys, & 50 Cent just to name a few.
A FIVE-STAR EVENT
The Best Buddies Challenges are five-star experiences unlike any other charity event. We recognize the importance of your fundraising and will make sure you are well taken care of, from the moment you register to the very last mile. Participants in the Challenge receive unparalleled support for their training and fundraising before the event. During your event, we’ll make sure you have everything you need to make it to finish line.
Supporting Best Buddies
The Best Buddies Challenge supports Best Buddies International, a global volunteer movement that creates opportunities for one-to-one friendships, integrated employment, leadership development, inclusive living, and family support for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
