Arlene Mulder Papaioannou and all the kids still fighting cancer

Arlene Mulder Papaioannou and all the kids still fighting cancer

This years ride is in memory of my daughter Arlene, who lost her fight in a battle against colon cancer in October 2018💔! While she was no longer a child, she was MY child! . Please help me to reach my goal of $15,000 or more this year. I’m trusting that I can count on your support again this year....will YOU be the one that pushes my numbers over the top? You sponsor and I will do the biking!

My Story

3 Jan 2024

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

Why? Because right now, over 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

My ride in 2023 surpassed my goal of $15,000, so this year my starting goal is $15,000 and will be adjusted as I get closer to my goal. I continue to bike in memory of my daughter Arlene, and riding and fundraising for all those still in the fight. I am hoping that you will continue to support me by sponsoring. YOU SPONSOR AND I WILL DO THE BIKING! Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Please check out my previous years stats in the sidebar on the left bottom of the page....YOU all helped me achieve that and for that I am forever grateful!

Your support will change little lives.

    A day late in posting, but yesterday I got out for a short bike ride again. The weather is great for now, but the coming week looks like more winter like weather again, so need to get out whenever I can! For the better part of the day yesterday, I was in Tillsonburg area, building the SOUTHWEST OXFORD PLUS TOUR package, and it's almost all put together now. Just a few more businessess to touch base with, but with it being March break, it was not possible to connect with everyone. But I must say, it has some awesome stuff in it again this year, so be watching for it sometime in May 2024!

    So the SHOP LOCAL fundraiser was all ready to launch ahead of schedule! Today it was launched on Facebook and so it’s open for you to purchase spots NOW! It will still run until May 15 though! Currently I am building a couple of other fundraiser packages and they are also looking like amazing packages. Stay tuned for them after the current one finishes!

    The weather is beginning to look more and more like spring every day. That means more and more opportunities to get out on my bike to train for the 400 kilometers I plan to ride in August! What it also means is, fundraising is well underway......with the first fundraiser completed, the second one is ready to roll out soon! It's been tweaked a bit from the past fundraiser, so be watching for opportunities to get free spots on the spinner wheel! Grab your aunts, uncles, cousins, or anyone you might think would be interested in winning an awesome prize package! Details will be revealed in just 8 short days!!!!! March 15, 2024 is the launch date for the SHOP LOCAL fundraiser, and the package has something for everyone in it.....gifts, gift certificates, vouchers, just such a variety of things that you don't want to miss this one!

  • March 4, 2024 - Inaugural ride for the year
    4 Mar 2024

    Today was the first day out on the bike for a ride, and while I thought my timing hadn't lost a lot over the winter, the headwinds on the return trip begged to differ. But the weather was great...a balmy 20 degrees....so there really was no good reason to be outside. It felt great to be out there again! And so, as the biking begins, the fundraising continues. Coming soon will be the SHOP LOCAL fundraiser, that looks like a great package. You won't want to miss it!!!

    All to help the kids fighting cancer!!!

    In case you missed it, there is still time to get in on the HI STEP fundraiser! An awesome package could become yours by getting your name on the wheel! Details on the flyer! Don’t see anything you like on the flyer, possibility exists to donate the package to disadvantaged people living in a shelter of your choice! Still not convinced? Another awesome package will be ready to roll out on March 15, 2024. Be watching for it. It’s got lots of cool stuff in it….something of interest for lots of people!

    So while you are all busy deciding on whether to join in the fun of being able to win an awesome prize package in the HI STEP fundraiser, I am out building a SHOP LOCAL package. It's coming together nicely, and promises to have some very cool things available for you. But first things first, don't forget to get your name on the wheel for the current fundraiser. It ends at the end of February, when the wheel spin will take place.......and you get an extra day, just because it's a leap year this year. But hurry to get on the wheel, you don't want to miss this one! And your ability to help me help the kids fighting cancer, means that together we can help to make a difference in the lives of the little ones fighting for their lives!!!

    While you all have been watching the weather, I have been busy putting together the first fundraiser for my Great Cycle Challenge 2024 ride to help kids fighting cancer! It’s ready to launch a few days early, so there is no time like the present to let you all have a peak and get in on the action!

    The first fundraiser package is coming together nicely and it has some interesting stuff in it that I think you will enjoy! Just a few more people to touch base with and then it’s time to print up flyers and start promoting it. The other issue is that I’m trying to come up with a catchy name for this fundraiser….still working on that. It should be ready to roll out by the end of the month!
