Once again I am riding in the Great Cycle Challenge and I am dedicating this years ride to a Aussie battler Adelina. Born with a heart problem 7 years ago and had a transplant and now told she has cancer. When is it enough for one child.

My Story

3 Oct 2024

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.

  • This year I'm wearing a moon boot.
    2 Oct 2024

    One month to go and I damaged a tendon in my foot. 9 weeks in a moon boot during the GCC. This means riding on a stationary bike which restricts my km this year. Still doing 200km which means only 8 to 9 km a day. Plus stuck on the patio looking at the same old fence. Please donate to my challenge to help save little lives. I may be slightly down but im not out of it in any way. Every little bit adds up .

    This year I'm wearing a moon boot.
