About the Chai Riders
A club united by our Jewish heritage and a passion for the open road. Founded over two decades ago, the Chai Riders Motorcycle Club brings together Jewish motorcyclists who combine their love for riding with their commitment to their faith and community.
We are proud members of the Jewish Motorcyclist Alliance (JMA), participating in national events and rides that support Holocaust remembrance and education, as well as local charities in the NYC metropolitan area.
Chai Riders at the Israel Day Parade
Every year, the Chai Riders take to the streets of New York City for the Celebrate Israel Parade — one of our signature events and a proud display of solidarity with the State of Israel and the Jewish community.
Riding together down Fifth Avenue, our members represent the club's commitment to Jewish pride, community, and visibility in one of the largest public celebrations of Israel in the world.
