Children with cancer

My Story

5 Sep 2024

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

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.

I will be riding 150 miles in the month of September, not on an e-bike, not even a 15 speed road bike, but on an old beach cruiser.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So if you love kids, have kids, grandkids, or were once a child yourself, please consider donating to help kids fight for their lives.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

Gary

    Had a wonderful autumn ride today to Cerritos Park in Bixby Knolls. 11 miles round trip from our home here in Lakewood Village. 26 miles to go to meet my ride goal of 150 miles. $65 still needed to achieve my goal of raising $2000. Looking for someone to help me cross that finish line.

    So grateful for all the motivation and support that I have received this month from friends and family.

    12 Sep 2024

    After 6 days of scorching (100 plus) temperatures, I got back on the bike on a cool 75 degree day. Not a long ride, but a 12 mile cruise with fellow fundraiser and Meals on wheels partner Ron Dibble.

    5 Sep 2024

    Well, 51 miles completed over the course of 3 rides on my beach cruiser.

    I’m going to put a pause on my cycling until next week due to high temperatures (100 degrees today) and high winds for the next several days.

    I’m so grateful to all that have supported this cause.

    I’ll keep you posted.
