I'm Riding For

Jacob Peskin (Gabriel Black)

Jacob Peskin (Gabriel Black)

I recently had the pleasure of meeting and becoming friends with an incredibly talented musician that you may know as Gabriel Black. This past Christmas, he was diagnosed with DSRCT (Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumors), which is a very rare and aggressive form of pediatric cancer. His incredible spirit, love of life, and devotion to win this fight is absolutely incredible and he is a true inspiration. I am excited to ride further and raise more than I ever have before in honor of my friend, and the millions of others who are fighting this fight. Together we will conquer this!

My Story

24 Jun 2023

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight pediatric cancer!

Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.
