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 700 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.

  • And away we go… Day 1: cycled 28km 🚴🏼‍♂️✅
    1 Oct 2024

    Slightly different strategy this year. Cycle hard on days under 28c, I will thank my future self for this approach come the end of the month. Cumulative an average of 15km a day to get ahead and bank a rest day. Day 1️⃣ allowed me to clock in 28km. Plenty of wind about, so the legs and bum are already feeling it but I’m nowhere near the shape I need to be for this GCC. For now, Rest up and go early tomorrow morning .

    And away we go… Day 1: cycled 28km 🚴🏼‍♂️✅

  • T-9 DAYS:Preparing for My Great Cycle Challenge
    22 Sep 2024

    With just nine days until my Great Cycle Challenge kicks off, I’m busy getting ready for the journey ahead! This October, I’ll be cycling 300 kilometers to raise funds for children battling cancer.

    Today was all about bike maintenance. I gave my bike a thorough wash, replaced the tubes, and lubricated all the moving parts and gears to ensure it’s in top shape before taking the bike out for a short ride. (Lite spin of 6.6km) It’s amazing how a little care can make such a difference!

    As I prepare, I’m reminded of the resilience of young cancer patients. Every kilometer I pedal will be a tribute to their strength and a step toward funding research and support for those in need.

    Thank you to everyone who has supported me so far! Let’s make a difference together. Stay tuned for more updates as I count down to the challenge!
