My Story
This October, 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.

My Third Year
23 May 2024So many things start off as just an idea.
I was unaware of the GCC, but heard about when I heard about it I was exercising well. What the heck I thought. So I did the challenge.
The next year I had been involved in an industrial accident, so had to be very careful about what I did. I managed to complete it and thought it would be easier next year.
Roll on 2023, I got a snapped rotator-cuff tendon in late August. Arm in a sling, I couldn’t ride. I asked admin how I could participate. They gave me the option of riding a stationary bike at home. Thanks to these guys I was able to raise funds for the third year in a row.
If you are looking for a great cause, this is it. Get fit and help kids.
It’s a no-brainer.
