My Story

23 Jul 2024

I've signed up for the Great Cycle Challenge again in 2024 to fight cancer! This will be my 6th year. My goal is to ride 200 miles and raise $1000.

Why am I doing this? Cancer is a leading killer and I've seen too many family members and friends having to fight it. Too many lost that fight.

Please support me by making a donation, if you can!

You can donate through the Facebook fundraiser or directly to my page at the GCC:

https://greatcyclechallenge.com/riders/NinettaKosswig

You can also venmo or paypal me and I add your donation to the challenge for you.

I will update you on my progress towards my goals in my GCC Blog and on Facebook. Hopefully, you will see my sweaty face a lot 😁

All funds raised will support Children's Cancer Research Fund to continue their work to develop innovative treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Thank you very much for your support 🙂

F**k Cancer!

  • I made it!
    1 Oct 2024

    With a ride into the sunset on the last day of the months I finally reached 201 miles.

    This year was a struggle and I honestly wasn’t sure, if I would make it, but I did it!

    If you want to celebrate with me consider donating to the cause 🥳

    THANK YOU to everyone who supported me. Your support means a lot to me and without it I wouldn’t have made it this year. And with your generous contributions we raised $1,127 to fight cancer.

    This year the GCC riders pedaled 1,810,054 miles and raised $7,188,975 so far. I am proud to have been part of this challenge for 6 years now. I will be back next year to keep fighting cancer.

    Thank you!!

  • Another 16 miles and a banged up knee
    25 Sep 2024

    On the bright side:

    Another 16 miles done!

    On the not so bright side:

    A car couldn’t decide, if the wanted to let me turn first or not. They slowed down, nearly stopped and then decided to not let me go first. My re-balance attempt when stopping myself didn’t go well and for the first time in over a decade I fell. The knee took the hit and I’ll see how it will feel tomorrow.

    Aufstehen, Kette drauf, Helm gerade rĂźcken und weiterfahren.

    Made it home safe.

    51 miles to go.
