My Story

1 Oct 2025

In September 2025 I will once again take part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer... Why? Because cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the US. Sadly, over 15,000 children are diagnosed every year. Please support my ride by making a donation to GACC. Your support will change young lives. Thank you.

My Challenge

  • One final pedaling push!
    1 Oct 2025

    I thought I was going to take some longer rides over the weekend, but I got busy working on projects up at camp with Cousin Dan.

    So I made one final push riding on the last two days of the month, and I hit my mileage goal!

    Thanks to everyone who supported me, or encouraged me, or donated this month. I could not have done this without you!

    One final  pedaling push!

  • Tribute Day on the Billboard in Times Square NYC!!
    18 Sep 2025

    As part of the Great Cycle Challenge USA “Tribute Day” my photo (above) appeared on the Times Square billboard.

    There were pictures of all kinds of #GCCUSA riders from every US state scrolling by all day long… it looked amazing and people in Times Square were talking about it ALL day.
