My Story

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.

James

“Hi Guys. Are you still in Greece or back home now? Just wanted to thank you very much for your donation in support of Childhood Cancer research and my cycling goal for this month of August. T I injured my kneees last wednesday and have had to cut back the distance and speed for my rides. That will make the distance challenge for this month a real challenge but I will do it a bit at a time.”

“Hello Pat. Thank you very much for your support of Childhood Cancer Research as well as my cycling efforts during this month of August. My cycling goal of 200kms was made even harder last wednesday as I ended up injuring both knees (horribly installed new cleats on new cycling shoes BY ME). I have had to cut back both my hiking and niking activities to give the knees time to recover however I am determined to make my distance goal of 200kms. TY again and keep posting your rides. You and Lisa are real leaders”

“HI Jenna. What a great surprise to wake up and be notified of your donation to further Childhood Cancer research and at the same time encourage me on my cycling challenge during this month of August. I did end up making the challenge a bit more difficult as I injured my knees during the last training ride in JUly. At the moment I am able to last for about 40kms before I have to stop and let them rest for a couple of days. BUT I am determined to make my goal and hopefully my knees will be back to normal soon. Again thank you very much for your support.”
