This October, due to a forced change in our travelling plans, I am again taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

I am only riding the last three weeks this year due to a reduced travel commitment. However, my commitment remains to supporting this institution to find a cure for kid's cancer, so on the bike and pedalling I will be.

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.

I didn't ride last year as I was away travelling for the entire month of October.

I have raised just $16,000 in the eight years I have ridden with your help I am striving to increase the total funds raised to $17,000 this year.

Thanks for your support.
