My Story

8 Aug 2025

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.

It’s Time To Venture Out

3 Sep 2025

Getting back into the habit of riding regularly, I’ve been riding the Sawmill Trail leaving from the house directly to the trail. After this 3rd day of riding it will be time to venture out to other bike trails such as Tall Grass in Marion, Ohio and several sections of the Ohio-Erie Rail Trail over the next couple of weeks. Doing this for the kids that are enduring their cancer treatments everyday is what this is all about!

Starting the Challenge as a Labor (Day) of Love.

2 Sep 2025

It’s never a holiday to be diagnosed with cancer, so getting out there for the kids early on Labor Day takes on a new meeting for me this morning. A comfortable ride of 13 miles (my lucky number) starts the ball rolling and moves me forward towards my 200 mile goal. Happy Labor Day to all and especially those that are supporting me. A Labor of Love indeed 😍

This Year…Safety First!

9 Aug 2025

Determined to make a comeback this year after last year’s disappointing personal results caused by getting hit by a car on the 4th day of the Challenge. A small setback when compared to the challenges these kids live with everyday. Your donations are appreciated!
