My Story

2 Aug 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.

Kevin

    FYI - went for a ride yesterday but the info from Strava did not upload to the GCC app. Manually entered the data in the app. I have a screen shot below just so you know I’m fudging any numbers.

    Eventful start! First ride resulted in a flat tire, but my trusty 1983 Cambio Rino is now out of retirement and ready to roll. Thanks to Nielsens Bicycles for the quick tune-up. I've logged 150 km so far, aiming for 300 km. Grateful for all sponsors and welcome any additional support.
