  “To Mark & his long time coworker Nicole, Today, on the final day of the Great Cycle Challenge 2023 I wanted to thank you for your support. Together with family & friends I have been able to fundraise more than $8,000 in 3 years. My goal for next August will be to surpass the $10,000 mark and secure an ALL STAR Jersey! I am so sincerely grateful to my family, friends and acquaintances for encouraging me and supporting me for the past three years. Completing this challenge at home on a stationary bike is not easy. It's takes a lot of time. There are no rolling hills, cool breezes or breathtaking scenery to pass the time. There is no one here to see me sporting my Great Cycle Challenge Jersey. But I gave it my all and got 'er done once again. Looking forward to challenging myself again next year! Julia”
