My Story

9 Sep 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 700 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.

Doug

    “Thanks Sue I gather than means you are still going, good on you. I'll find you and reciprocate. I've had to knock back my kilometres as I've been diagnosed with an auto immune condition (CIDP) which makes it a bit harder (an ebike helps!) but pleased to be able to keep pedalling.”
