First, I know this is a late start, but was unsure if I could ride after a bad sciatica attack. Yup, the body is acting up, BUT…slow improvement since June. So I’m going to try it again, though with modest mileage goals. I still need YOU to fight kids’ cancer…and kids with cancer need YOU too.

In September I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge (GCC) to fight kids' cancer! ...my 6th year riding for Liliana, soon to be age 9!...and still fighting! See her age 4 picture on this page.

Why ride and help? Because right now, cancer is still 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.

* Funds raised will help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work for needed lifesaving treatments will continue to accelerate the hoped for breakthroughs.

* History: Since 2021, our annual goals have increased and been annually CRUSHED. I've been forever amazed at the generous support from all of you! Please support my rides by making a donation (see note 2) to help give these kids the brighter futures they deserve ...and THANK YOU to all for reading this!

Your support will save little lives.

Updates: A couple of reminders:

1. DONATIONS now DO count; please know ANY support, ANY time helps these little kids fighting cancer. THANKS.

2. BUT…IF you're following me CLOSELY, then note that soon (I’ll confirm the date as soon as I know) I expect GCC will announce a MATCH DAY when a national group will MATCH all donations made that day...and I'll match the 1st $500 received... So IF you ARE following me CLOSELY, watch for it and donate that day. Again, THANKS all.
