I'm Riding For

Flynn Pfoeffer

Flynn Pfoeffer

Supporting little Flynn from North Queensland, the bravest lad who is currently receiving treatment for a rare form of brain cancer.

My Story

30 Sep 2025

This October, I’m 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.

If you’re able to spare a few dollars or more, I would be most grateful if you could 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 so much.
