I'm Riding For
friends and neighbours plus ALL the little kids who are currently in the fight of their lives.
Our loved ones who have battled and won inspire me to keep pedaling, while those who have sadly lost the fight - Mum (pictured), my Aunty Joyce, my sister-in-law Evelyn, friends Siegi and Mary and Barbara are also in my thoughts. Due to research, cancer treatments are improving all the time. One day we WILL have a cure. This is why I ride.
My Story
I know I said that 2024 might be my last GCC . . . I even got my first tattoo to mark my 10th and final year of participating in the challenge. But then here we are in 2025 and I just registered again!
I couldn't help myself - so have set my goals lower this year, to avoid flooding your feeds with more shameless begging. My loyal supporters probably won't be able to help themselves though - you know who you are! Try and hold out until Kick Cancer's Butt Day though!
Let's hope that we can eventually eradicate childhood cancer - the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia.
Thank you for your ongoing support. Together, we can save little lives. Let's kick cancer's butt!!!
