My Story

7 Oct 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.

  • Not my afternoon for a ride…
    29 Oct 2024

    My friend Jay called me for a ride today, and I thought it would be a great way to rack up some more kilometers for the Great Cycle Challenge. Even though I wasn’t feeling up to it, I convinced myself to push through—after all, you always feel better after getting some time on the bike.

    Unfortunately, it didn’t go as planned. I ended up with a flat tire and a shoe that blew out on me, which led to me having to call for a ride home. It’s tough when you try to do the right thing and your gear doesn’t cooperate. It looks like the whole “ride tubeless” idea wasn’t as foolproof as I had hoped!

    There is always tomorrow!

  • Jay’s MTB Magical Mystery Tour
    19 Oct 2024

    I enjoyed a wonderful Spring evening on the MTB with Jay, marking his triumphant return to biking after a long break!

    It’s a privilege to spin the pedals and raise awareness for the cancer plight that affects so many children. It’s even more special to gather support for the Fight Against Kids Cancer this October during The Great Cycle Challenge!

    Cycling can truly be a magical remedy for both physical and mental challenges.

    Thank you, Great Cycle Challenge, for creating this event to support kids with cancer and inspire hope for cures.

  • Magpie Attacks
    10 Oct 2024

    Recently, I've faced some health challenges, but there's one thing that keeps me motivated: The Great Cycle Challenge. The chance to combat childhood cancer while improving my own health is nothing short of inspiring. The effects of cancer hit close to home for me, especially when my mother bravely fought breast cancer. I truly believe that every ounce of research brings us closer to better health for everyone and helps shield those innocent kids from suffering.

    I geared up and tackled a 100km ride, all while raising awareness in the battle against kids' cancer. No obstacle held me back, not even those pesky magpie attacks! Let’s keep pedaling forward!
