My Story
YEAR 4
This ride caught my attention a few years ago. I thought I would join, make a contribution, give me some time to think about my "Mom" and stay active. It is something bigger now, I never meant to ask people to support (an individual choice right), I never intended to "blog" but I started to think more about my Mom, my family members, hockey teammates and then we all have stories from friends about cancer's impact on their lives and families.
Nobody should have to deal with cancer. Cancer is one brilliant action (accidental or not) by a mind greater than mine to having a solution! Lets' crush cancer!
Check out the Team Page - "Help them be Kids"
Breathe deeply, smile often, find the "good"...

Last Day for 2024 GCC Riders
31 Aug 2024My best to all the GCC riders on the last km's of 2024. Safe travels for all!
And for the kids, family, friends and all who battle cancer our GCC ride ends today but our will for all of you to keep going, keep smiling, finding the "good" whenever and in whatever moment does not end - ever.
The rainbow picture at the top of my page is my hope that the pot of gold is the end of cancer as we know it! Never thought I would see the end of a rainbow - so never say never, life is full of possibilities.

August 28 Ride Petit Trail Mont Tremblant
29 Aug 2024This trail is 200km long from St Jerome into Mont Laurier Quebec. It is home to various 10km, 1/2 marathon, marathons, cyclist, walkers, in-line skating and some groomed classic cross country skiing in winter.
The section around Mont Tre.blant is paved and north into Labelle is a combination paved/ hard packed gravel (though it looks like they are about to pave all sections into Labelle).
C'est fantastique and it is pretty much flat! 42 km ride August 28.

Saturday, August 10
11 Aug 2024300km down, 700km to go. It is called the Long and Winding Road. And i am just riding a bike, indoors/ outdoors, solo or with other cycling enthusiasts. I have that opportunity. All people/ kids deserve that opportunity - or the chance to enjoy what they love, whatever it may be.
The photo, Monday, August 5. One of my favorites. About 90 minutes up and down, depending on how long you spend up top. It is totally mezmerizing from 3rd week in September through the end of the 2nd/ beginning of 3rd week of October. Your mind is bedazzled by the colours. A premier ski hill can be seen at the far end of the lake.
Any ideas of location?
Last picture/ blog with camel riders on the beach - Australia (go figure).
Wednesday this comig week is huge for Great Cycle Challenge. All donations up to $1 million $$ will be matched. Really an amazing day!!! And very motivating for all riders.
We all have different pathways in life, we never really know where the road will take us - but our travels would be way better without having to think about cancer getting in the way - help the kids, help all that are touched by cancer.

Great Cycle Challenge Day 3
4 Aug 2024PHOTO INFO
I am working on my butt this month (1000km for a young old guy on a road bike) - others I know are travelling around different parts of the world. So the pic is from someone where camel rides on a beach at sunset are happening. Anyone know where?
3 days in - 100km done. Fortunate to spin my bike wheels in Mont Tremblant. Beautiful routes here and usually do not have to worry about car/ truck traffic as Tremblant usually hosts 2-3 triathlons each year, which attracts cyclist. And the people living in the community tend to support healthy active living. Also smaller population in the area versus GTA and the people seem a lot more laid back about life.
GTA is full of road rage drivers and the stories/ incidents of drivers purposely trying to intimidate/ hit cyclists are increasing. And this seems even to be the case on low rural roads!
Sunday is a day off from bike - hope to get a longer ride in on Monday with a few pictures. Also joined a GCC team - Help Them Be Kids.
Fight the good battle, help the crazy drivers stay calm and think about helping kids find a life that is cancer free.
