My Story

This October, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Because right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – over 700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 die every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

And so I am riding and raising funds to support the Children's Medical Research Institute to continue their work into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support my challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Together, we can save little lives.

Thanks for your support.

Cris

Doing it tough

3 Nov 2025

This year was a bit slower than previous. Constant sickness throughout the month. My boy, Nicholas, was sick with the flu on the last week of October with only 15km left to complete on his challenge. But we pushed on, knowing that there are children with far worse problems than ourselves.

Well done Nicky!
