My Story

28 May 2025

Hi everybody,

This August, I will be participating in the Great Cycle Challenge (Canada) again. Since I first became involved with the GCC in 2021, I have ridden 3,738 km and raised $2,512 for the SickKids Foundation. A huge thank you to everyone who has supported me over the last 5 years.

The SickKids Foundation leads the fight for the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, one of the world's most reputable paediatric health-care institutions. In Canada, approximately 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and SickKids treats approximately 25% of all childhood cancer patients across the country.

This challenge and cause have a very special place in my heart, and I have every intention of participating in the GCC for many years to come. This year, my goal is to ride 500 km and raise $500. As always, I hope to surpass these numbers as I have every year since I started. My 1983 Cambio Rino road bike will be my trusty steed again this year which I outfitted with brand new bar tape last night.

If you would like to donate, please see the link below. Every little bit helps.
