Let’s outride childhood cancer—together.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Townsville to Cairns Bike Ride—an incredible event that’s raised over $8 million to fight childhood cancer. I’m proud to be part of it again, riding 374km over three days to support kids and families doing it tough.
In 2025, I’m stepping it up—doubling my fundraising goal from $1,000 to $2,000—because the need is just as real, and the impact is just as powerful.
Every week in Australia, 20 children are diagnosed with cancer, and sadly, three don’t survive. But thanks to research, outcomes are improving. I’m riding to support the Children’s Cancer Institute; Australia’s only independent medical research institute focused solely on curing childhood cancer.
Your donation helps fund breakthroughs that give kids the chance to grow up, chase dreams, and live full, healthy lives.
I’ll do the riding. You can help power the mission. Every donation—big or small—makes a real difference.
🚴♂️ Back the ride. Fund the research. Give kids a future.
