I'm Riding For

Geoffrey Thomas and Noah Masse

Geoff was a trooper all through his life fighting cancer. Noah was stricken when born but by the Grace of God has been in remission. As you can see, he is growing up a handsome happy young boy and headed to high school this school year. I'm so proud of him and his Dad, Mike Masse, for supporting me and allowing me to Celebrate Noah's survival against this dreadful disease. I celebrate my son's life, and Noah's life as a survivor Cancer is a hideous disease, and Children should not have to suffer the pain that is always present. Geoff was Born in 1972 and died in 1977. Always remembered and always missed. I pray a long life for Noah and all those young survivors.

My Story

12 Jul 2025

This September 2025, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! This is my ninth-year riding and looking forward to having another successful fundraiser.

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.

As you can see I am already collecting donations. This year whenever I lose a friend to cancer I will donate $200. I have already lost two friends.

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

Your support will change lives.

Thank you.
