14 Years Riding for the Perkins

2025 will be my 14th year of riding in the Cancer200 and raising money to support cancer research at the Perkins Institute.  Many thanks to all my donors and sponsors for your ongoing support.

In 2024 you helped me raise $15,000.  This is me at the finish line with fellow 13 year and Diamond Rider Peter Leedman AO who is the CEO of The Perkins Institute.

I've set a goal to raise $5,000 this year but it would be fantastic if I could reach $15,000 again.

I’m on a mission to defeat cancer.

Cancer has taken so much from us. Whether it is a loved one, family member, friend or closer to home, cancer is relentless.

I want to put a stop to cancer by riding 200kms to raise vital funds for cancer research right here in WA.

The funds I raise will go to the brilliant minds at the Perkins who are committed to !nding breakthroughs that will lead to improved health outcomes for those aected by the hardest-to-treat diseases.

Hearing the words “it’s cancer” is heart-wrenching. But with Perkins researchers, I am determined to eliminate the fear and uncertainty that cancer brings.

On Saturday 12 October and Sunday 13 October 2024, I will pedal alongside my fellow riders who share the dream of making cancer non-lethal. Your support can turn this dream into reality.

Many riders return every year because they know that the funds we raise go back to the Perkins. It is also a worst kept secret that the Ride is the friendliest cycling charity event in Australia. Why not join me in making a difference?

Whether you join me on the Ride or contribute to my fundraising page, your generous support matters.

Together, we can conquer cancer.
