My Story

8 Sep 2026

I've signed up for the 2026 Great Cycle Challenge and will be riding this September to fight kids' cancer! My goal is to pedal 150 miles throughout the month.

Why am I doing this? Because cancer is the largest killer of children from disease in the United States – 38 children die of cancer every week.

My challenge will be tough, but it's nothing compared to what these brave kids and their families face every day of their lives as they battle this terrible disease.

Kids should be living life, NOT fighting for it.

And so I am taking on this challenge to end childhood cancer and save little lives.

Please support me by making a pledge today.

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 for your support & keep the rubber side down,

Cody
