My Story

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.

Rhonda

    “Hi Ben, This is such a worthwhile cause. We need to help all the children in Australia who are fighting cancers. As they don’t have a voice we are as Adults there to give them that voice to carry on fighting. No child should be suffering cancer so every year I pledge to raise funds, put my $$’ s in too and then ride an achievable distance for the month. Unfortunately, at the start of this month came down with a very bad virus so kms are low so far. Keep a watch out though as my determination is to get to the 500km. They let us add kms 2 weeks after end of October so I’m thinking I can do it! Thank you very much Ben for your donation. Roll On Rhonda”

Thank you so much. I’ve had an uneventful 1st week as was held up in bed then convalescing so I will have to get the burners on to make my goal :-))”
