My Story

8 Oct 2026

Hi, Family , Friends , Work Peoples & anyone who can Kindly Help Please DO

Here I go again yes back on the Bike , I have signed up for the 2026 Great Cycle Challenge and will be riding this October to fight kids' cancer!

So far I have raised $228118.00 this year is now my 8th challenge , ridden so far 5,086 km & plan to build on that as best that I can.

My current goal is to pedal 350 km throughout the month October 2026 , but I will exceed that this timeI am sure last year 2025 I managed 400km so plan to build on that for sure (yes body yes !!).

It will not be easy, and it will take over my afternoons & weekends and my life. Hmmm, I probably should have thought a bit more about what I was getting myself into. :)

But I am taking on this challenge for one reason... to kick cancer's butt!

Because more Australian children lose their lives to cancer than any other disease. Over 600 children are diagnosed every year, and 3 children die every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

Cancer has taken too many little lives and robbed too many kids of their childhood. It needs to be taught a lesson...

So I'm riding to give cancer a good old-fashioned butt-kicking and give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Please support me by making a donation through my fundraising page:

https://greatcyclechallenge.com.au/Riders/TonyMickelson

Your donation will support Children's Medical Research Institute to develop treatments and find cures for childhood cancers, and all donations are tax deductable I will send you a receipt.

Thanks for your support, and wish me luck (I'll need it).
