My Story

4 Aug 2024

Let’s Go Riders in Niagara and all across Canada 🇨🇦!!! This August 2024, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! Remembering Nephews Aaron at (5 Yrs) and Elijah at (20 Yrs ) who did not win the fight. Amazing that more than $1million has been raised before Aug ‘24. Blessings and safety to all riders.Lets Go Riders 🚴‍♀️. Come on Canada 🇨🇦

Why? Because right now, children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Kids want to 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 in ways you may not know, but believe it in your heart ❤️ . You Are making a difference !!! 😃

Thank you.

Here's my personal impact over 4 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.

    Aug 31st 2024 came and ended The Great Cycle Challenge. 466.6 km ridden. I’ll be honest - my knees did feel it. $1,839 was raised and I cannot thank my friends and family enough for their generous donations given for Toronto Sick Kids! 🥰❤️❤️❤️🥰

    Over 79,006 sponsors across Canada donated. 31 riders each raised over $10,000!

    One cancer survivor Jarrod had cycled for this cause 9 x’s. This yr he raised $35,372!!Wow! Many have a story regarding cancer and those they lost. Even 32 kids under 5 yrs old rode 🥰

    Again Thankyou Thankyou and I’m thankful God kept me and my team safe on the roads.

    Checked the weather … no rain noted. Ok that’s good. After doing a warmup ride to help Kathy… proteined up and rode to Port Colborne. Wind felt stronger the closer I rode to PC . Bridge up - went on the Friendship Trail. On the way home noticed a dark cloud in the west ..passed Ontario st along the canal path and got caught in the rain - not fair. Tired this evening after a total of 58 km’s

    After getting up at 0545 - a yoga for tired legs then off to watch my beautiful granddaughters. Once done, a drive to Stoney Creek with bike in the trunk (oops bike lights at home charging). The clouds rolled in and the temp dropped a bit, making it great for the 41 km bike ride up to Burloak Waterfront park. Thankful for new paved roads

    This year it’s a little harder in Niagara Ontario to get motivated and ride as the humidity levels are higher and some days the rain interferes. But remembering why I’m cycling.. gets me on my bike 🚴‍♂️… friendly honk your horn when you see those bike shirts - orange blue white
