I'm Riding For
All children fighting cancer and my father and paternal grandmother who battled cancer.
“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” ~Matthew 19:14 While this fundraiser focuses on the CCRF, my tribute is for those children who battled cancer and lost and all those who continue to fight. Initial thoughts go to my youngest daughter's friend, who, with her parents' faith and love, an amazing group of doctors and nurses, and endless support from family and friends, is a SURVIVOR of acute myeloid leukemia and is now a healthy college senior. My final thoughts are with my dad who lost his 10-month battle with non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma on May 27th, 2009. For the month of September, I'll do my best to complete those miles and remember in prayer all those who have lost their battles, all those who won, and all those who continue to fight cancer...ESPECIALLY THE CHILDREN. This year my mileage goal is 250 miles and my financial goal to $5,701.30. Will you help me reach my financial goal?
My Story
This September, for the 11th year in a row, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! Great Cycle Challenge started in 2015, and after just 11 years, the event has grown to become one of the biggest cycling events in the United States. In 11 years, our community of riders from all 50 states has ridden a total of 36,122,668 miles, and together we’ve raised $79,792,070 in support of research to develop better treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer. Although I did not participate in 2015, over the past 10 years, I have ridden 3,504 miles, and with the help of family, friends, and neighbors, I have raised $ $34,298.70 for the Children's Cancer Research Fund. This year, my mileage goal is 250 miles, and my financial goal is $5,701.30 to reach over $40,000 raised over the 11 years I've been a participant. Will you help me reach my financial goal? MATCH DAY IS THIS WEDNESDAY, AUGUST, 9 where all online donations WILL BE MATCHED up to $1,400,000!
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.
Children should be living life, not fighting for it.
Therefore, I am raising funds through my challenge to help these children and support the 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 and God Bless!

22 miles
18 Sep 2026Today I rode 22 miles for Ronni, one of Clara’s good friends since K-5, who survived leukemia after being diagnosed in January of her kindergarten year.
She endured countless treatments and spent a great deal of time, off and on, at MUSC Children’s Hospital. Today, Ronni is a healthy, beautiful young woman, a senior in college, and will turn 22 at the end of October. Thankfully, she doesn’t remember much of what she went through, but I know her parents do.
We spent time with Ronni and her mother in the hospital many times and witnessed firsthand how her journey affected her entire family, especially her mother, who is a dear friend of mine.
Ronni’s remission and eventual healing are one of the reasons I ride every year. Her story is a reminder of why this matters, not only for the children battling cancer, but for the parents and families who walk that frightening journey alongside them. We need better treatments, and ultimately, a cure for childhood cancer, so fewer children and families have to endure what Ronni and her family went through.
