My Story
This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.
Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Your support will change little lives.
Thank you.
Bart

3rd day 27 days to go
4 Sep 2025I'm not trusting the apps tract my ride. I'm getting conflicting data on the second and third lap. Each one is a different distance for the same traveled distance. Does anyone have recommendations on a third-party application for tracking distance and speed? I want to make sure I get proper credit for all travel/cycled distance.

2nd day 28 more day till completion .
3 Sep 2025Today completes my 2nd day on the chanelleng. Another day with adventure added. At first couldn't figure out why my speed was so slow, well the tire pressure in each wheel was different and on the low side 😅 of being enough. On my 3rd round got a flat tire. So to speed things up I went to Walmart to buy new inner tubes and a .high volume floor pump.at this point I've only completed 12 miles . I needed to complete 16.66 miles every day just to get the 500 miles in 30 days.Afther finishing the plate repair I was able to get 6 more miles in, giving me a total of 18 miles for the day.

My 2nd training ride
29 Aug 2025I started yesterday with a 3 mile ride on a trike, then decided today to do a 10-mile ride. 8 miles in my chain broke, so I ended up walking the last two miles 🏡 home. I replaced the chain with a new one. I'll be ready to go again tomorrow. This challenge is starting out to be an adventure.
