My Story

18 Jun 2024

In September 2024 I will once again take part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer... Why? Because cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the US. Sadly, over 15,000 children are diagnosed every year. Please support my ride by making a donation to GACC. Your support will change young lives. Thank you.

Here's my personal impact over 10 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.

My Challenge

  • Short weeknight miles still count!
    5 Sep 2025

    It wasn’t too cold outside, and it wasn’t raining after work today, so I thought it would be a good idea to get out and pedal a little bit before dinner. I didn’t expect to go 10 miles, but I was feeling good so I kept going.

    Short weeknight miles still count!

    5 Sep 2025

  • Cooler Weather Ahead
    19 Aug 2025

    With the heat dome moving away from WNY, things are finally cooling off which makes for better weather... however, the shorter days do not make it easier to log miles. In any event, it hard to believe it but the GCC starts in just two weeks! Hope you are following along with my training and mileage accomplishments.
