My Story

17 Jul 2024

This August, I am riding 500km in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! This will be my 5th year participating in this very noble fundraising campaign.

For most of my adult life, I’ve been involved in youth activities- church groups, scouts, cadets, sports - you name it, I’ve done it! I help out as much as I can because I firmly believe in fostering active and healthy lifestyles to all kids. I am riding to raise funds to support these brave kids and their families because kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

Please support my 500km challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page.

All funds raised will support SickKids Foundation to provide care, develop treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Thank you.

Gino

    17 Aug 2024

    So much for a daily blog update 😂🤣

    Lots of great adventures over the last two weeks! Exploring the coastlines of Cumberland county NS, group ride with Explore Vélo, another group ride with my teammates from NB Power, exploring the beautiful river front capital of New Brunswick and finally a quick road ride around Saint-Louis-De-Kent, birthplace of the Acadian flag!

    Meanwhile,I received my GCC jersey, reached my personal fundraising goal and my team blew past our fundraising goal - over 15 K and counting!

    But why stop there? There are still 13 days left in the challenge! Let’s see how much money we can raise!

    Happy riding!

  • Day 2 and 3: Pugwash - World famous for peace
    3 Aug 2024

    Day 2 and 3 of the GCC took my wife and I on the same route to beautiful Pugwash Nova Scotia. In 1957 businessman, philanthropist and Pugwash native Cyrus Eaton proposed the creation of a conference against nuclear weapons proliferation. Over the years, the conference has been attended by various world leaders, including Albert Einstein, President Bill Clinton and General Romeo Dallaire. In 1995, the Pugwash conference was awarded the Nobel Peace prize. The conference continues to be very active as a proponent of nuclear disarmament.

    Nova Scotia’s Cumberland county is also famous for it’s delicious wild blueberries. And don’t even think about comparing them to it’s high bush cousin - the low bush blueberries are way sweeter and more flavourful! They just happened to be in season and were available today at the Pugwash farmers market!

    Happy riding!
