My Story

25 Aug 2025

This October, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

This is a great incentive to get back on the bike after last year walking 250kms on the Portuguese Camino. Riding will be around Ballarat with road and trail options.

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.

Please jump on board and support this incredible cause.

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.
