My Story

30 Jan 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.

John

  • That’s a wrap GCC 2024
    1 Sep 2024

    It’s just after 5:30 pm August 31 year #3 complete.

    Just like to Thank everyone of my our sponsors for this year’s achievements, without you folks we wouldn’t have been able to get as far as we did. Thanks to the boys at work for helping out the days needed.

    The one goal we had complete control over was the km goal, the fundraising was another banger year which drove me to complete the 2000km from August 1-31. Time on the bike 88hours 3min,16,000 meters climbed over the 2029 km and 42 rides completed.

    Saw another GCC rider today on lochside and around the Airport Cathy Jansen who was putting in the 82 km to finish up her ride goal.

    The scenery I saw when I hit the mark happened to be Mt Baker of in the distance.

    That’s a wrap GCC 2024
