I'm Riding For

David Kenny

I am riding to honor my dear friend and cancer survivor Dave Kenny. Dave spent the longest part of his prominent veterinary career at the Denver Zoo. He dedicated himself to the health and well-being of so many animals for more than 28 years with a caring heart and tender touch. Although he is not a child, he is one in spirit.

My Story

14 Jul 2025

Hello to all of my past and future sponsors! I have been a supporter and contributor in the fight to defeat childhood cancer by helping the Children’s Cancer Research Fund, a prestigious research organizations, one of the first whose sole purpose is eradicating childhood cancers. I ride to raise awareness and raises funds to help the CCRF in this effort. This will be my 9th year and thanks to all of the support I have received from friends, colleagues and others. As of the completion of the 2024 challenge I had ridden 3,249 mi and through the help of many friends I have raised $8,825.00.

I have set a goal to ride 500 miles this September and to raise $1,500.00 to support the efforts of the Children’s Cancer Research Fund. If I reach my fundraising target I will creat $10,000.00 over the span of my Great Cycle Challenge participation...

My hope is that you will help me attain my fund raising challenge. My ride will begin September 1, 2025. While the miles start accumulating on 1 September, the fund raising is open now!

Why support this effort? 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.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

Thank you.

Larry
