My Story

2 Oct 2025

This October, for the fourth year, 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 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 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.

Year One: raised $852 on my $500 goal and rode 205/200kms (in Oct.)

Year Two: raised $2,055 on my $1k goal and rode 350/400kms (in Oct.)

Year Three: raised $3,300 on my $2k goal and rode ~600/500km (in Oct.)

I'm riding for the children and families who are going through this because, when I look at my 5 year old son, I can't imagine what it would be like to be on the other side of it. I'm also riding for AD's older brother, who he lost when he was very young.

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.
