Just over Three Weeks to My Ninth MACA Ride

In 24 days, I'll be hitting the roads from Perth to Mandurah and back for my ninth MACA ride, fundraising to support the Perkins Cancer Research Institute. I've done a fair bit more training this year, so I'm feeling more ready than I have before.

I'm still a bit short on my fundraising goal of $4,000, but here's hoping I can get a few last-minute donors to come on board to crack that magic number.

Nine years on, still pedalling on the 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.
