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

I’m riding for my Auntie Katie. Katie was a huge part of my life growing up. She was full of warmth, laughter and love, and the kind of person who made everyone around her feel at ease. She fought cancer for 15 years with incredible strength. After an initial breast cancer diagnosis, she came close to remission, but the cancer returned twice and eventually spread to her lungs and liver. Hearing the stories of what someone you love had to go through changes you. It also makes you realise how important research, treatment and hope really are. The funds raised through this ride go directly to groundbreaking cancer research happening right here in Western Australia. Research that is helping to create better treatments and better outcomes for people living with cancer today. Last year I rode for Katie. This year, I ride again for her, and for every family facing a similar fight. If you’re able to support, thank you. Every donation, no matter the size, contributes to research that saves lives. This one’s for you, Katie.

I’m riding for my Auntie Katie.

This one’s for you, Katie.

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.

In October 2026, I’m joining a community of passionate riders to cycle 200km to raise vital funds for cancer research at the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research.

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!
