I'm Riding For

Steve “the Goalie”

Steve “the Goalie”

This year I will ride for my friend Steve and his wife Janet and family. I played hockey with Steve for many years and he lived around the corner. We went to the same church, our kids went to the same school. Last year Steve was diagnosed with Glioblastoma brain cancer. Steve, along with the help of Hamilton Health Sciences Hospital fought this cancer as much as possible until he finally succumbed. I’m riding in your memory Steve, Rest in Peace.

My Story

8 Aug 2026

My father was taken way too early to cancer. Other relatives and friends have also lost the fight to cancer and some continue to endure.

CANCER SUCKS!

KIDS’ CANCER REALLY SUCKS!

It has almost become natural to lose a parent to cancer, but to me, it’s almost unthinkable to lose a child to cancer.

Will you please support this cause and support my efforts to make this a success. Peace.

Thanks

Jack

My Challenge

  • Granddaughter Maya does 40km with Opa
    16 Aug 2026

    My granddaughter Maya was a REAL trooper today. She woke up with a head cold but wanted to ride. I ignored her until she showed up at our house! So after waiting for me to wash the cars, we rode to Stoney Creek Confederation Park. We circled the park and then headed back and went out to Guelph line. Then zig-zagged back to Brant and home for 40km. Her longest ride to date.

    Support Jacquie and her kids if you haven’t donated yet.
