I'm Riding For

Eliane, my Father and Cedars Sinai.

I am riding for our family and their mother’s celebration of 23 years free and clear from breast cancer! My mother Penny White passed almost 30 years ago, and my Father Jack who just recently passed, I ride for them as well! I also ride to give back in appreciation for the brilliant staff and my Doctors at Cedars Sinai! Thank you in advance for your support!

My Story

16 Feb 2026

This September 2026 , I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids Cancer. Why? Sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

We all should be living life, not fighting for it. My ride starts now!!!

In my 7th year, 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.

I am doing this as my giving back and in thanks for my own survival. Thank you for supporting me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives in a big way!

Thank you.

2026 Update

16 Feb 2026

Thank you for your support over the last 8 years in raising research monies for children’s cancer.

Little did I know, that my own life would be saved by the Drs. at Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles in 2023.

However, it’s the children I ride for.

Their stories of courage are what motivate me to ride.

“Hey Barry, thank you very much for this contribution. I think this is my eighth year in a row and I appreciate everyone who has supported me this far in May. I hope to see you as we will be on the eastern slope of the Sierras and I think we will come over and stop at Andrea‘s. At least that’s the plan that I think coordinate with Andrea. I’ll use her as my My go to person in terms of time of arrival and I look forward to seeing you thank you again.”
