BOSTON (WHDH) - Thousands of riders in the Best Buddies Challenge are on the road today from Boston to Hyannis Port.
The 100-mile bicycle ride, which starts at Columbia Point in Dorchester, raises millions of dollars to create friendships and career opportunities for people with developmental and intellectual disabilities.
Friday, members of the 7News team helped kick off the Best Buddies Challenge along with Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.
The Tom Brady Football Challenge was held at Harvard Stadium. Christa Delcamp and Adam Williams took the field as part of Team Tom Brady.
In addition to Brady, other Patriots players like Danny Amendola and Julian Edelman participated in the game. Former Patriots players like Tedy Bruschi also took part.
