family and friends we've lost to cancer

My Story

26 Jun 2026

Call me crazy, but as I approach age 80, I will be riding my bicycle in the Great Cycle Challenge to raise money for research into causes, treatments, and cures for childhood cancer. During September 2026, for the 7th consecutive year, I will join thousands of riders worldwide who are supporting the Children's Cancer Research Fund by asking our friends, colleagues, and relatives to support our rides with donations to the Fund.

Together we will help fund the research that is so important to the children and their families who anxiously seek better treatment protocols and a cure for the children's sake.

This year you can help me achieve my goal of raising $2000 while riding 200 miles. Please go to my page and click on "Donate Now." Here's the link: https://greatcyclechallenge.com/Riders/ElizabethAversa

The children and I will be forever grateful!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
