My Story

25 Jun 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.

Octavio

My Challenge

Spotted: GCC Riders in the Wild!

27 Apr 2026

Had an "interesting" (and muddy!) time at P2A 2026 today. One of the highlights was spotting a few other riders participating in the Great Cycle Challenge.

I stayed a bit quiet today, but seeing those familiar colors reminded me why we do this. Note to self for next year: wear the jersey! It’s a lot easier to say hello when you’re already wearing the "uniform."

Thanks for the support as I clock these kilometers for the kids!

“Thank you so much for the donation and the incredibly kind message, Tannaz! It’s been great staying connected since our trip last year, and I truly appreciate you supporting such an important cause. Knowing I have colleagues like you cheering me on makes those kilometers feel much shorter. Thanks for being part of this journey with me!”
