My Story

13 Jul 2025

For the past four years, I have ridden in The Great Cycle Challenge which raises money for The Sick Kids Foundation and specifically to raise money to fight cancer in kids. In all of these years, my supporters have exceeded my expectations and have made this challenge so meaningful to me. Not only do I get to do something that I love but I get to do good for others while doing it. So far in 2021 through 2024, my supporters have donated $23770 and I have ridden a total of 5065 km during each August. I am keeping the same goals for 2025 which are, riding 1250km and collecting $5000 in donations. It's not easy, but I know you are all with me.

Thank you.
