I'm Riding For
Patrick Hallenbeck
My friend and mentor, who helped me and many other people during his life, has recently lost the battle. He will live longer than most, in the hearts of his family, and friends and through his legacy.
My Story
Once again this year, I'm participating in the "Great Cycling Challenge" (GCC Canada), a fundraising initiative supporting pediatric cancer research and families navigating the heartbreaking journey of their children's battle against cancer.
My Goal: $500 CAD and 1 km for every dollar donated! (August, September, and October)
My Motivation
I participate in this campaign in solidarity with parents facing this challenge. Fortunately, my children have never had cancer, but my eldest received a diagnosis of a degenerative and fatal genetic disease at age 4. Six months later, we received confirmation it was a false positive. The lasting impact of that experience, combined with supporting a close friend through his battle with bone cancer, motivated me to engage in this campaign as a humble way to show support for all parents going through this ordeal.
P.S. Last year I was pleasantly surprised to receive over $700 in donations, but COVID in August limited my cycling performance! I'm now working hard to "pay back" last year's donations in kilometers!
The rides will be posted on my Great Cycle Challenge website profile!
Thank you for your support and encouragement!
