My Story

7 Sep 2023

I’m Back… This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer for the FOURTH straight year! If you were part on my pit crew in 2020, 2021 and 2022, our donations raised an outstanding $13,902.00 and inspired me to ride 688 miles!!!!!

Our goal is to pedal another 200 miles throughout the month of September.

Why am I doing this? right now, because more children in the USA lose their lives to cancer than any other disease.... It's awful to think so many young lives are lost to this terrible disease. Kids should be living life, NOT fighting for it. To show my support, I am taking on this 30-day challenge to support cancer research and give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

This August I turned 62 so it will be a bit tougher than it was when I was 59, but it's nothing compared to what these brave kids face every day as they battle this disease and fight for their lives.

So today, I'm asking for your support. If you pledge a mere 10 cents a mile and hit my goal it will be the best $20 dollars you ever spent!

Please donate through my fundraising page to support my challenge and join me in the fight to save little lives.

All funds raised will support Children's Cancer Research Fund to continue their work to develop innovative treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Thank you so much.
