My Story

19 Aug 2025

I'm getting to a bit of a slow start this year with the Great Cycle Challenge, especially since a foot fracture has put my biking on hold. However, it's never too late to make a difference!

This is my fifth year participating in the Great Cycle Challenge, an event that brings people across Canada together throughout August to "Kick Kids Cancer's Butt." The Great Cycle Challenge fosters a fantastic community of positivity and support, offering a great website and app to track your miles.

I invite you to join in the fun! You can register at https://greatcyclechallenge.ca/ and then find my team, Team Xavier. No pressure friends, no major mile commitment, just get on your bike, on your feet.... and raise your spirits and some $.

Thank you for your support, donation and for considering joining Team Xavier.

Have a wonderful summer.

Building a healthy community,

Deb
