Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

This page allows you to make secure donations directly to my chosen chairity: CHOC - Childhood Cancer Foundation of South Africa. For more on them: www.choc.org.za and also the info panel to the left.

I’m hoping to raise funds by using the few tools I have - I am a Cancer survivor, I can ride a bicycle, and I’m a determined so and so.

2009 marks the 10th anniversary of my cancer diagnosis. I rode my first Argus Cycle Tour in the 2 week break I had between my final chemo session and the start of my month long radiation treatment.

My Father rode his first Argus the following year at age 64, it was hot and very hard that year. I asked him afterwards if Lance Armstrong had inspired him when it got tough, he replied “no, you did”

Since then, amongst many other road and mountainbike races, I have done 6 Tours, he has done 5.

We are marking the 10 year anniversary  this year by doing it together on a tandem. I am now 43, he is 73.

We are using the occasion to raise money for CHOC, you can go to http://www.rideforcancer.iblog.co.za/ to read more on my story and keep track of our progress. I have just opened that site and it needs work. It will be updated continually, so please keep checking back.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to donate. Your contribution to this page will benefit the charity listed on the left.

Please donate generously.

Many thanks for your support.
