My Story

12 Aug 2025

Again this August I am riding in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

This year I am off to a late start due to a pulled hamstring, but on my bike now.

With my new ebike I can take on the challenge of hills and longer rides, again with Team Oceanside 2025. Also needed an ebike to keep up with all the other ridders who have one. Last year our team of three rode 1,004 km and raised $9,850.

The support from my family and friends last year encouraged me to ride again this year to help these brave kids and their families as they face the scariest time of their lives.

Latest news is that this Wednesday (August 13) is KICK CANCER'S BUTT DAY!

Long-time supporters, the Garron Family, will MATCH ALL DONATIONS received on Wednesday, up to $1,300,000!

So that means ANY online donation received on Wednesday, up to first $1,300,000, will be MATCHED and added to my fundraising page. $20 = $40 So, please get in early on Canadian Wednesday.
