I'm Riding For

Opa/Papa - Auntie Lyndell - Helen - Jose - Julian, Alia

We have lost too many people in our lives with cancer, but also know too many people with cancer. For all of those special people we ride, we ride for you all and will be thinking about you all every single ride. We talk about you and keep the ones who wave lost their battle alive, we fight for the ones who are battling and hopefully there will be a cure once day! Also thinking about all those beautiful children and their families who are fighting this moment. Our thoughts are with you all! Never give up, we won't give up for sure and will be riding every single year for you all ❤️

My Story

4 Oct 2024

This October, Kayne, Siska and I 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 we are 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 our 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.

My Challenge

  • A challenging morning…
    7 Oct 2024

    GREAT CYCLING CHALLENGE…a challenge it was!

    What a morning….not the morning we wished for, but glad for the help we’ve got and without broken bones!

    Only a broken bike 🚲

    We were ready to ride this morning when Siska fell and her foot got stuck and I mean really stuck. While Dan is working away, I had to think who could help. I called Kahlina as her husband Jay is a firefighter so I thought that is a good start. They arrived and while Kahlina made it more comfy for Siska, I tried to help Jay and comfort Siska at the same time. Every movement she screamed and was in pain….my poor girl 🥲

    Then Jay called his colleagues as it was so much harder then he thought. The fire truck 🚒 rocked up and even an ambulance 🚑. It wasn’t an easy task, but they cut the bike and freed her leg! The ambulance lady checked Siska but surprisingly she was totally fine! No broken bones or bad bruises. So very lucky 🍀 Only we need to find a new bike.

    If anyone has a small bike we could borrow for now that would be great. Just so she can still ride to raise money for cancer till she has a new one.

    What a stressful morning…..but thank you Kahlina, Jay, the firefighters and the ambulance for taking care of us and for the great outcome 🥰

    *remember this Wednesday it’s double up day and all donations made this Wednesday your money will be doubled!

    A challenging morning…

    Our first ride is done and dusted!

    Siska decided she wanted to ride as well and I’m so super proud of her for riding 13.3km without complaining! Well done my girl.

    This is our 6th year and unfortunately more people who we know have been diagnosed with cancer this year and we ride for YOU ALL ♥️

    Keep fighting, keep smiling and remember you are not forgotten!

    We really hope there will be a cure one day and that’s why we raise money. Money to find a medicine that can help to cure this nasty disease!

    Let’s get together and donate big or small, even if it is $1 or €1! Every cent counts! Please click on the link in my bio and this brings you to our website where you can donate.

    This Wednesday your donations will be doubled!! So if you like to wait, wait till next Wednesday 9th October.

    Thank you for your support and we keep riding this month!
