My Story

29 Jul 2025

This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, over 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Kids should 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.

Thank you.

Garry

My Challenge

First Ride

2 Aug 2025

I figured if I can ride 13km everyday in August I will reach my goal of 400km, if I do more it’s less pressure as the end gets closer! So after working Friday I went on my first ride got almost 11km in and then my tire went flat, luckily I was only 1km from the house, so I’ll fix that tomorrow and then then go for a longer ride!
