My Story
This October(2020), I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Because right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – over 600 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 die every week.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
And so I am riding and raising funds to support the Children's Medical Research Institute to continue their work into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure for childhood cancer.
Please support my challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Together, we can save little lives.
Thanks for your support.

Monday 26 October
25 Oct 2020Well, the weekend was a washout, and it looks like the next week is going to be nothing but rain and wind. After trying to ride on Saturday and being blown over, I'm not going to damage myself or bike in this wind, nor get wet and miserable riding out in that mess. Oh well, $2006.00 is a good score, although I was hoping for $3000.00 this year. As usual, plenty of likes on my posts, but none bar one or two of those likes contributes to the total wanted....if all gave just $10.00 it would quickly get the total up, but they don't think about that, pity.
Next year again, I'll be riding to help those poor kids have a life without Cancer. Help me help them, please.

16 Oct 2020Oh gee, can't ride today, wind is so strong when I went to get on the bike it blew over with me on it. So, back inside where it's calm and will take a look all day just in case the wind dies down, but.....The weather we can't make do what we want with, just have to put up with the days without riding.

My Rides 2020
8 Oct 2020Well, after a few days rest and rec away from home in the bush, I'm back on the bike every day it's good enough to ride out in the wilds of Tuncurry/Forster. So far my knees only seem to work for and including 21.5 kms and then there is absolutely no energy left in them. But, hoping they can get a bit better with the more I ride, I venture on each day.
This brings me to you lot who are yet to donate, get your hands in your pockets and bring out your credit card and make a donation to help these poor kids hold out for a future without childhood cancer. Go on, but a sport and do something to help the up and coming generation of citizens. I know I'll be looked after in my twilight years on this earth, as I've tried to help kids live good lives without the threat of cancer for quite a few years already. Can you say that to those who will look after your well being in your twilight years?

1 October 2020
1 Oct 2020My 1st days ride for 2020 and looking forward to seeing if I can reach a goal of $17,000.00 this year, as my knees are not real good and it hurts to pedal a bit more these days, but I think of those kids and that spurs me on. Please, think about those poor little boys and girls suffering from childhood cancer, please make a donation to help find cures for this insidious disease.

Please help me help these kids with Cancer
18 Aug 2020We have been given the opportunity of taking in sponsorship from July till end of October this year in the hope of raising funds to drive research deeper into a cure for Childhood cancers through Gene research as well.
You can use it as a tax deduction if over $2 - but hey, once a year is my quest for people to dig deep and give to this most worthy cause.

My Rides 2020
9 May 2020I've been riding every morning for some months now to help my knees gain strength for replacement knees at the end of the year.
We will be moving to Tuncurry on 22 May 2020 to Crystal Waters over 55's to live. But, I'll be continuing to ride every day (of course, not in the rain) I can.
