Meet Connor
Introducing Connor–one of this year’s Ride for a Child Honored Children! Connor is fifteen years old and has one older sister, Tess. Connor has lots of hobbies that include PC gaming, digital art, cooking, baking, playing piano, and going on walks!
Connor's favorite genre of music would have to be Alt-Rock, he likes to listen to anything in that genre. His favorite book at the moment is Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie, by Jordan Sonnenblick, because he likes the genre and can relate to the story. Connor is also a fan of Star Wars and likes legos. If Connor was stranded on a deserted island, the one thing he would bring would be his iPad.
Connor was diagnosed with a brain tumor in 2022. So far, his favorite memory from Candlelighters has been going on boat rides on Lake Oswego at some of our events!

Another good week of riding exploring the Springwater Corridor Trail and various bike paths around SW Portland, Tigard and Tualatin. This will be the last week of longer rides, then rest, recovery and a couple easy rides the last week before Cycle Oregon starts Saturday 8/29. Thanks again to all you generous donors and supporters. You've helped me exceed my fundraising goals and helped Candlelighters in their mission to support children with cancer and their families.

I think I’m ready for Cycle Oregon! I rode a metric century on Saturday and another 58 miles during the week and on Sunday. There’s a beautiful trail here in Oregon called the Banks Vernonia trail. It’s a 40 mile rt rails to trails. Not a lot of climbing but you could log some miles! Thanks for all your support. 12 days to go!

Had a great time in Bend this weekend for a family reunion and managed to get in a killer ride from Bend to Mt Bachelor and back! 41 miles and 3100 ft of elevation! Great training ride for Cycle Oregon Rally and much more scenic than my rides around Portland.
