Please help me to help the Perkins end cancer!

This is my 12th year participating in this incredible event, and it's not an easy ride so will do my best to ride most of the 200kms. But what is so much harder is the battle so many are facing following a diagnosis of cancer!  As a breast doctor I give hundreds of women every year their diagnosis of breast cancer,  and that one conversation changes their lives and those of their loved ones for ever.
We must continue to raise funds to support the discovery of new treatments so that one day my job is completely redundant. The discovery of Melittin as a potential target for Triple Negative Breast Cancer is so exciting but we need to progress this through to clinical trials, and that requires enormous financial support.
This year I ride for Ben and Clare.
Love, Sarah XX

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 11 October and Sunday 12 October 2025, 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.
