I’M RIDING IN MEMORY OF My Family Member, Kathy

Please help me get to the starting line of my final ride. My sitter Kathy Bunce founded Fiti50 and inspired so many people—many of them non-riders—to step outside their comfort zones and commit to something bigger than themselves. Collectively Fiti50 has raised $1.3 million. Tragically, Kathy passed away before she could ride for the team, but her spirit, strength, and belief in this cause continues to drive me and many others forward every single day. Cancer doesn’t just affect one person. It shakes families, friends, and entire communities. I’ve seen that impact firsthand, and that’s why we ride. In October 2026, i’ll be joining a community of passionate riders to cycle 200km, raising vital funds for cancer research at the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research. Every dollar donated pushes us closer to breakthroughs at the Perkins, where brilliant researchers work tirelessly to find life-saving answers for some of the toughest cancers. Their work is critical—but it relies on support from people like us to ensure progress continues, no matter what. 100% of the funds raised go directly to the Perkins, giving researchers the resources they need to continue their life-saving work, so our loved ones can live longer, healthier lives. This Ride is more than a test of endurance—it’s about unity, hope, and belief. I’ll be riding alongside an incredible group of people who share one common goal: a future where cancer no longer takes the people we love. I can’t do this alone. Will you help me reach this goal? Whether you choose to ride with me or support my fundraising, your generosity could make a real difference—and could be the key to saving lives. Together, we can beat cancer.

I’m on a mission to defeat cancer.

Cancer doesn’t just affect one person, it shakes up families, friends and communities. This year, I will be taking a stand against it.

Every dollar pushes us closer to breakthroughs at the Perkins where brilliant researchers work tirelessly to find life-saving answers for some of the toughest cancers. But they also need our help to ensure their vital progress continues– no matter what.

 100% of the funds we raise will go back to the Perkins giving cancer researchers the support to continue their life-saving work so that our loved ones can live longer, healthier lives.

The Ride is more than just a test of endurance—it’s about unity. I'll ride alongside an incredible group of people who believe, as I do, that cancer can be conquered. Your support can turn this belief into reality.

I can’t do this alone. Will you help me to reach this goal?

Whether you join me on the Ride or support my fundraising, your generosity could be the key to saving our loved ones from this disease.

Together, we can beat cancer!
