I'm Riding For

Dad,Mom,Grandma,Uncles, Aunt,Sisters,Brother ,and Niece, alone with 2 special friends.

This is my 7th year, we know that God’s kingdom is the real cure. But until then, please help me support the research for a cure. Our kids should be playing on playgrounds, not sitting in cancer clinics. I’ve fought for last 2 years to ride again, after a knee replacement and then a revision. This is for the kids.

My Story

30 Sep 2026

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' 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. It is my privilege to ride for the 6th year.

Thank you.
