I'm Riding For
The Kids
For ALL the kids! For my Granddaughter Kylie. "The Bug" does not have cancer, she has my heart, my soul, and every fiber of my life held in her little smile. (When she isn't being a terrorist) She is the Granddaughter I was never supposed to have met having been handed a terminal diagnosis in 2013.
My Story
My name is Richard Bone, and for over a decade, I’ve been fighting a relentless battle with cancer. My journey began in December 2012 with a diagnosis of Stage IV colon cancer that quickly changed my life. Since then, I’ve faced multiple surgeries, rounds of chemotherapy, and several new cancer diagnoses—including bladder and throat cancer. There were moments when the odds were overwhelmingly against me, but with hope, determination, and the unwavering support of my loved ones, I kept moving forward.
Through every setback and every victory, I’ve learned just how strong the human spirit can be. I ride in the Great Cycle Challenge Canada for the 6th time not just for myself, but for everyone who faces cancer and for the families who stand beside them. Together, we can make a difference—because nobody fights alone.
Thank you for supporting the Sick Kids Foundation and helping to give hope to so many on their own cancer journeys.
I may have cancer, but cancer doesn’t have me!

Fresh Air!
14 May 2026Now that the head cold is gone and I can breath again, I'm better able to get some time on the bike! Having the emtb sure does help inspire and enable me to ride terrain that would otherwise see a lot more hike-a-bike happening.
I may have cancer, but cancer doesn't have me!
