This September-for the NINTH year in a row-I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! I believe this to be a great cause to fight for, even in this small way. I hope to ride a bunch and raise a bunch of funds for he Childrens' Cancer Research Fund.

Even though I'll be traveling the west in search of trout, I will carry the bike with me and try to log those miles. I hope you can contribute, or start your own challenge. It's a fun way to do a NECESSARY thing!

I believe in this cause and this charitable organization so I've volunteered to not only ride myself but also to get OTHERS to ride with me! So join me! It's easy to sign up. Let's get a group of us going on this challenge!

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.

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.

Thank you.
