My Story

8 Oct 2025

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.

  • Tumbarumba Rail Trail Ride
    8 Oct 2025

    Pippa & I rode part of the Tumbarumba to Rosewood Rail Trail today (Sawpit Creek to Glenroy Hills Road & back). It was a beautiful sunny day, with 3 swooping magpies on the way, but only 2 of them swooped on the way back with feigned enthusiasm in comparison.

    I'm very glad that the Rail Trail went ahead, I am certainly not up to the Mount Tumbarumba mountain bike trails - a flatter & scenic ride is much more my style!
