My Story

31 Jul 2024

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

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.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support SickKids Foundation to allow them to continue their work in developing treatments and finding 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.

My Legacy

Here's my personal impact over 2 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.

  • Where my 4th ride lead me
    23 Aug 2024

    Hopped on my bike today and it lead me to Rene Park after a pit stop at Montebello Park to write in my journal and arranged a visit fthere with Aunt Joyce Western World Rowing at Henley Regatta all week. Plus free stuff to do at some of the booths to try and win prizes. Tried a rowing race simulator. Placed 6/6 with a time of 2.28.48 for 500 metres race. Started out strong and slowed right down for the 109 metres. Should have given myself more recovery time as I just finished riding to Port Dalhousie Had a lot of fun with me, myself and I. Met a few people from around the world. Listened to some great music and danced like no one was watching.

    TODAYS RIDE ADDED ANOTHER 20km to my goal of 100. Now standing at 68kms

  • Aware of the Journey
    16 Aug 2024

    Well, I signed myself up for this August challenge and having a goal of 100 km and I’ve only been on two rides so far so today I ventured out for another one.

    My thought for this ride was life is about the journey, not the destination. Went down memory lane for some things… stopped at shoppers drug Mart to pick up a narcan kit ( nasal spray to give anyone you are struggling as they have OD on drugs.. whatever it may be)…. Got to my destination which was Port Dalhousie to talk about the first canal as my other 2 rides were about the second canal and the current canal…had a peach sorbet for a treat along with a few carousel rides cuz what would Lakeside Park be without going on the carousel in the summer. ALSO THE WORLD ROWING CHAMPIONSHIPS ARE ON SOON..

    Heading home to get final km total for today’s ride

    My total for today was 20km.

  • Second ride
    4 Aug 2024

    This time decided to ride along one of the old canals of St. Catharines which runs partly along Oakdale Avenue. Hard to believe that the locks and canal was so small compared to nowadays. It’s like comparing a speed boat to a cruise liner. Along my ride I was tempted to stop at Dairy Queen for a blizzard but quickly changed my mind and kept riding.

    Stopped in at a friends house on the way home. Surprised I did about 12kms tonight.

    Did my first ride today did 16 km up and down the canal from lock one St Catharines to lock three St Catharines and back to lock one again. it was a good ride as the timing was perfect. I saw this humungous sailboat go through named Empire Sandy and my timing was perfect to see a ship go through lock 3. Was a great ride😁👍🏼

    Also went through the Museum at lock 3. Shown in pictures
