I'm Riding For

Mary Harte (Godmother)

For the month of September, I am again riding to cure kids’ cancer in 2026! But I am also dedicating this year’s challenge to my dear Aunt Mary (Godmother), who succumbed to cancer in 2025. She is sorely missed by all of us that knew and loved her. ❤️‍🩹

My Story

14 Jul 2026

This September will be my 6th year participating in the Great Cycle Challenge (Wow-hard to fathom)! It has been a privilege and an honor to be a small part of this organization.

I have ridden over 3,400 miles and we, together, have raised close to $14,000.00.

I have set a miles goal of 725 for the month of September and a financial goal of $3,500.00. If successful, we will surpass 4,000 miles ridden and over $17,000.00 raised for this terrific cause.

I look forward to meeting and surpassing both goals with your help. All donations go to the Children’s Cancer Research Fund.

Thank you for all of your past and future support. And as always, any donation, big or small, is greatly appreciated

Best regards,

Ken

My Challenge

Thank You All!

30 Sep 2026

The 2026 GCC is in the books! 📕 I added 30 miles today in sunny Florida to close it out strong! 🚴‍♂️

I want to say thank you again for all of your support and donations, to help these young kids in need, dealing with this horrible disease. It would be great if all of them could experience riding a bike outdoors and playing with their friends as the norm, versus their current conditions and daily struggles.

Until next year, I will rest now and get back on the links. ⛳️

Another Successful Kick Cancer’s Butt Campaign

22 Sep 2026

We surpassed $3,500.00 yesterday, as well as surpassing the miles goal of 725 (727) earlier today. 🤩🥳

I have 8 days remaining to pad my miles, to hopefully, lessen next year’s goal. Plus, I have my eye on 5k miles by the end of September ‘27, and surpassing $20k raised for those kids’ struggling with this disease.

Thank you all very much for your incredible support in Kicking Cancer’s Butt!!

I am grateful, blessed and thankful for all of you. 🙌🏻👏🏻👊🏻
