About Us
Riders For A Cause (Local Riders, Cancer Fighters) and the Black Tie Tour were formed out of a desire to help local families impacted by cancer. Riders For A Cause is an all volunteer 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
The Black Tie Tour is a premier cycling event in Central New Jersey being held on August 22, 2021 at the Capital Health Medical Center - Hopewell Campus. Featuring 10, 25 and 50-mile scenic routes, & they all begin and end at the Capital Health Medical Center Hopewell Campus. This ride is planned to be a unique, upscale event offering accoutrements that are atypical of other local cycling events. We like to describe it as a "gala" on wheels.
"We hope you will join us in 2021 as a rider, volunteer, and/or sponsor as we aim to "Uplift Hopes Using Our Spokes". It still holds true what our 2016 Ambassador, Antonio Nini, used to say: "We ride for hope. We ride for cancer patients and their families."
