I'm Riding For
Darlene
My very special lifelong friend who lost her valiant battle to cancer and for Addy who followed me for 2 years. ❤️🩹
My Story
This August, I am taking part in my third Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Why? Because right now, over 1,400 children are diagnosed with cancer every year.
As well, I am riding in memory of very special lifelong best friend, Darlene Robertson, who lost her valiant battle with cancer June 21, 2021 at 70 years of age. We shared so many good times together and she will always be in my heart. As well , it is for all of you who have lost family, friends to cancer or recovered from cancer.
Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
If you wish to donate financially you will receive an official receipt or if you just wish to support me that is great 🥰
Your support will change little lives such as Benjamin, Nori, Liam, Annabelle, Hallie, Lynn, Qais and many more ❤️

Thanks to all of you we made the Super Hero Level last year !
Thank you ❤️🚴♀️
