Douglas Clare

My dad was a modest man and a good father. His life was ended eventually by cancer, as tough as he was. Although his lifestyle probably contributed to his health's descent, he lived it with gusto and was a very hard worker. His quick wit and dry sense of humor entertained me and uncountable others. He instilled in me humility, good morals and could communicate much with a facial expression and well timed silence. Dad, these miles are for you.

My Story

19 Aug 2023

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.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

“Well, I'm finally and officially off and riding. I'm running behind due to a beautiful British Columbia vacation including the first 11 days of this month. I haven't been using my riding muscles much this Summer, either. It has much to do with exchanging pickleball exercise time for riding time, which I miss. I hope those muscles aren't going to hamper my pickleball play tomorrow. I'm feeling it already. :-D Come back to see my progress and comments. Thank you, my gracious friends!”
