My Story

3 Sep 2026

For six years, the Great Cycle Challenge has held a special place in my heart. What started as a personal commitment to help children battling cancer has grown into a journey of purpose, perseverance, and hope. Along the way, I have ridden more than 960 miles and raised over $4,900, but the numbers only tell part of the story.

Every mile I ride is dedicated to a child facing a battle they never chose. Every donation is a reminder that our community cares and is willing to stand beside these children and their families during some of the hardest moments of their lives.

As a parent, friend, neighbor, and community member, I believe we all have a responsibility to help where we can. Riding in the Great Cycle Challenge is my way of doing that. It is my small contribution to a cause that is far bigger than myself.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me over the years. Together, we are creating hope, raising awareness, and helping fund the research and treatments needed to give kids fighting cancer the brighter future they deserve. I will keep riding because every child deserves the chance to live a healthy, happy life. 🚴‍♂️💛

Thank you.

    “Every ride is a battle — Every push is precision. No wasted motion. No hesitation. Just power meeting purpose. When the pain spikes, sharpen your focus and cut through it. Own the pace. Own the climb. Own the moment. You’re not just riding — you’re carving your strength into the road. Drive the pedals harder. Own the climb. You’re not just riding; you’re proving your grit mile after mile. The road tests you, but you answer with power, discipline, and heart.”
