I wish Tesla and her family to one day soon enjoy healthy days and peace. This little girl's toughness and courage have forever touched me. You are a true Super Hero, and I am so happy to know you and look forward to you riding with me this year in August. We got this girl
My Story
This will be my third year of fundraising for the kids fighting Cancer, and I look forward to the challenge. The first year was truly remarkable because of the huge support I received from my family and friends, old and new. I rode in B.C. and Ontario during a scheduled vacation to see my grandson there. He was on my team and had his pledge to achieve also, so we managed to each meet our targets together, what a rush. The young girl who we rode for was battling leukemia, but by the end of our challenge, she had won her battle and beat it. My second year was made even more meaningful with the passing of a young 10-year-old boy in Germany, who by chance was the grandson of a high school friend of mine in the 60's. He had written a book titled" The Hidden Land of the Dragons" his name was Alexandre Sax Gomes. So with Tesla and Alex in my heart, I beat my pledge of $2500 and reached Super Star Status. Thanks again to an even bigger support base than the previous year. The $2500 pledge included a Super Star Jersey which I wear with pride, and was able to get one for Tesla, in a very small girl size 5. Her mom says she loves it and hopefully will ride for the team with it this year. She is the real Super Star in my opinion. So this year I am again keeping their names in my mind and another survivor who is a dear friend of mine who won her battle with Cancer. I am aiming for a $10,000 target in 4 years and this being my third year, gives me a chance to push and raise as much as I can to take some pressure off my 80-year-old body in next year's Challenge. Wish me luck and dig deep as you can please, and thank you all again for the support you have given. Together I know I will reach my goal.
