I'm Riding For

Kevin Nye

Kevin Nye

This year I will be riding for my friend Kevin Nye. Kevin sadly lost his battle with cancer back in April 2022. This disease has robbed family & friends by taking another great soul way too early. RIP Kevin. Thank you for your friendship, Jokes and "Irish whisper". You will never be forgotten. There are still many people always thinking of you!

My Story

8 Aug 2024

This is my 4th year riding for such a great cause. This year I will be riding in the name of my dear friend Kevin, who sadly lost his battle with cancer in early 2022. My goal is to raise $1,000.00 and ride 2,000 miles all in his name, please consider donating and help me reach this goal together.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So 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.

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

Thank you,

Ray
