I’m riding the Cycle Oregon Long Course Route (RALLY '26 – Cycle Oregon | 295.9 miles over 5 days) to raise funds and awareness for local kids with cancer and their families. For those of you that know me, you know I ride anywhere from 75-200 miles a week, so can include that in your calculus as well ;-).

This cause is special to me as our dear friends Carissa and Jordan's sweet boy Cohen was diagnosed with cancer when he was 4 months old. Over the following year, he received 17 cycles of chemo, a major surgery to remove the tumor on his leg, and countless other challenges that his cancer brought. Candlelighters was an incredible resource that provided support, fun and safe events, and a sense of community that they really needed. They also do so much more, between financial support, meals in the hospital, and other critical services - they are crucial to helping families get through this exceedingly difficult time.

So please consider donating! Every dollar pledged will go toward the mission of Candlelighters For Children With Cancer, a non-profit organization that provides life-changing programs and services for families facing cancer across Oregon and SW Washington. You can support me by pledging per mile, and following my progress on the Ride for a Child 2025 Leaderboard.
