I'm Riding For
Aunt Lynn & Mom Char
Dedicating my ride to these amazing ladies. Aunt Lynn, unfortunately, lost her battle to this beast, after having survived other forms of cancers for decades. Mom (Char) was a miracle survivor for over 30 years (we miss you, dearly). Ashlyn was my first Great Cycle Challenge child that I dedicated my ride to. She lost her battle but her legacy to fight Kids'Cancer, until no other child has to fight it, lives on. This is why I ride, and will continue to ride, every year they invite me back to do so, until a cure for Kids' Cancer has been found! Let's Kick Cancer's Butt!! WE RIDE; WITH PRIDE!!
My Story
7 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.
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.
Your support will change little lives.
Thank you.
