Have now exceeded my increased goal of $800 so now I'm targeting $1000 and 300 miles!
Here's what you've helped achieve so far this month:
• 17,030 riders are taking part from all corners of the country.
• 63,866 individual donations have been received to support your efforts.
• $6,256,460 has been raised (so far), which is incredible.
• Together, we've logged 67,560 rides and ridden a total of 942,409 miles.
...and we've still got 13 days to go.
We're pedaling together right to the finish line, and I know you'll be there with us as we close out the challenge strong.
Behind every mile lies the reason why this ride matters so deeply.
So far this month:
• 698 families have heard the devastating words, "your child has cancer."
• We've lost 92 children to this terrible disease.
These families deserve more effective treatments and better outcomes for their kids. And that's why childhood cancer research is so important.
Whilst our month of riding will make a huge difference to the children and families affected by cancer, we can all strive for the day when childhood cancer is a distant memory.
Because kids should be living life, NOT fighting for it.
Through Day 2!
