I'm Riding For

In Memory of Paxton Cooper.

In Memory of Paxton  Cooper.

Join me as we fight for treatments and advances in therapy to help kids like Paxton who develop AML. AML continues to be one of our most aggressive childhood leukemias. He was 7 years old and passed away within 1 week of his being diagnosed. Please help by donating in Paxton's memory so that these kids have a hope for a future.

My Story

5 Aug 2025

For the eighth year this September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

This year I ride in memory of Paxton Cooper who passed away from AML, a childhood cancer that needs much more research.

Thank you.
