I'm Riding For

Chris

Chris

My dad meant the world to me, and we spoke almost every week. So much of who I am today, and what I have in life, is because of his influence. In his later years, all he wanted was to enjoy time with his grandkids, time that was sadly cut short. I miss him every day, and I know I always will. This time, as I get back on the bike after what has been a few years, I’ll be riding in his honour. I know he’ll be there with me, giving me that extra push with every pedal stroke.

My Story

13 Aug 2025

It's been many years since I cycled regularly. For someone who once regularly rode 2000km a month this should be easy. But I know it won't be the legs and body will hurt this time around but my heart will ache as well. I'm riding in honour of my Dad who lost his battle with cancer a few years ago. Knowing what he went through and the thought of kids having to go through it I had to jump on the bike again.

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.
