Every three minutes, a baby is born with a cleft, a life-threatening condition that makes eating, breathing, speaking, and so much else a constant struggle. Smile Train empowers local healthcare workers in more than 70 countries to provide these children with the care they need to not just live, but thrive, 100% free. But we can only save these children's lives thanks to the generosity and compassion of people like you. RIDE for Smile Train is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to truly help yourself by helping others.

• Two fully supported multi-distance RIDE days
• A two-night stay at the Hilton Resort at the Peak
• All meals, including a special welcome reception and award dinner
• RIDE for Smile Train cycling kit and additional team gear and apparel
