I'm Riding For
Darren Timms (RIP 2024) & John Smallwood (RIP 2019)
In memory of Darren Timms (RIP 2024) and John Smallwood (pictured) RIP 2019 I am again participating in the October Great Cycle Challenge riding for Children's Cancer Research. Pease support this important initiative by donating to the cause.
My Story
This October Redlands Cycling & Multisport Club Team (RCMC) is again taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! Last Year 41 RCMC Riders participated, and we raised $24,278 for Children's Cancer Research.
Our Team’s October Kilometer Total was 37430, an Average of 1078 km's per day for the 31 days. As well as participating in our location at Redlands Qld, team Rides in interesting Locations included Czech Republic 194km, Singapore 468km, the World Ironman Championships Kona Hawaii 180km, Brisbane to Tamworth (in appalling conditions) 600+ kms, MTB Rides in the Scrub, North Stradbroke Island, and the Sunshine Coast. The banter during the challenge is amazing and so many team members rode WAY beyond their comfort Zone. The Challenge is a great format that doesn't draw donation $$ away from the Charity.
So here we go again with building the 2024 team to smash our Goals. We are aware right now, that 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. We also ride in memory of our great departed Friends Darren Timms and John Smallwood (RIP) and are raising funds to support the Children's Medical Research Institute to enable them to continue their work into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure for childhood cancer. Thank you everyone who supports our challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Together, we helped save little lives. Thanks for your support.
