I'm Riding For
Myself
Hello, I want to start by thanking everyone who has support me and this great charity over the past 10 years. This year hits home as I have been diagnosed with cancer this spring and after some procedures and surgeries I am now n the beginning of Chemo and radiation treatments with a good fight ahead of me and can’t imagine being a child going through this fight now knowing it myself. So I lowered my ride goal to 12 miles for well a selfish reason of not sure if I will be able to ride at that point but to at least try from my regular starting point make it to one of my favorite coffee shops and grab a great ice coffee for the turn around trip and go from there. I have been blessed with a healthy child and grandchildren and when I read about this cause 10 years ago I knew I had to help where ever I could for this group of wonderful children. I have lost family and friends to cancer and have also had survivors in my family and friends has shown me you can never stop fighting. Please join me on this ride as I earn some miles and donations to help all these amazing and wonderful children who fight everyday just wanting to be on their bikes too. Thank you for all your support. Jason
My Story
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.

Day before we kick cancers butt!!
8 Sep 2026This is my 10th year riding for an amazing cause and this year hits home meaning me directly. This past 6-7 months I have gone through procedures, surgeries, chemo and 5 day week radiation for 7 weeks to fight the cancer that was trying to take me out. So experiencing it first hand as a healthy well ex healthy adult I have no idea how these children go through it and they need all the support we can give them. Not sure how many miles if any at all I will be getting in. I have a big goal of 12 miles this month which gets me to a cafe on the trail for an ice coffee and back lol. But as always to raise as much money as possible.
