I'm Riding For
Czar Troutman & Esteban Martinez.
In memory of one of my greatest supporters, motivators, ride buddy and friend, Czar Troutman. Czar felt deeply about this cause and even accompanied me on one of my rides. This year, sadly I add another friend to my list, Esteban Martinez. Esteban, a energetic and vibrant 21 year old lost his courageous battle to brain cancer in March 2025. I continue to be inspired by people battling this disease and the courage it takes, especially the "Wee One's".. When I feel tired while riding I simply think of them and keep pedaling. Please support this cause with whatever you can donate. They thank you and so do I. Slainte
My Story
Hi Folks
Ten years and counting. Thank you to all of my wonderful, generous sponsors. Over the past 9 years I have ridden 13,564 km and between us we have raised an amazing $29,977.22 ... I'm excited to see what we achieve in 2025!
As a personal goal for my tenth year I would love to break the $33,000 fund raising goal ($3,022.78) in new sponsorship, and the distance goal of 14,500 / 30.19 km per day x 31 days = 936 km. Depending on weather, knees and whatever life throws, I will strive to round out my overall milage to 15,000 km.
The Wee One's should be living life, NOT fighting for it. Please help me raise funds to support these brave kids and their families as they face the scariest time of their lives.
Please support my 936 km challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page:
https://greatcyclechallenge.ca/Riders/BrendanDevlin/d
All funds raised will support SickKids Foundation to provide care, develop treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.
I sincerely thank you for your support.
Slainte
Brendan
