My Story

8 May 2024

For the forth year in a row, I have joined the fight against childhood cancer and will be taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge, supporting the Children's Cancer Research Fund.

This time 3 years ago, my wife and I were eagerly waiting the arrival of my son as we were 6 months pregnant. I originally joined the challenge as a prospective father relating to all the parents out there with children battling cancer.

We now have another addition to our family, Henry.

This year, Sarah and I are incredibly thankful that both Sammy and Henry are healthy and not fighting this terrible disease. As a father, I cannot comprehend the emotions of watching your son or daughter having to go through chemotherapy, never knowing if we would celebrate another birthday together.

This is why I continue to fight, continue to donate, and continue to ride; this year and years to come. Their fight isn't going to end, why should ours?

Please help me by supporting this cause. Any amount helps. Imagine if everyone donated just $1 this year, how many lives could that change?
