My Story

1 Sep 2025

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.

Franklin

    1 Sep 2025

    of to a great start this morning on the Prairie Trail. It was such a beautiful ride of 38 miles from Crystal Lake - IL to Genoa City - WI, cutting through the breathtaking expanse of the Glacial Park Conservation Area. The fox river winding through this picturesque land that is richly inhabited with wild flowers, birds and lots of rabbits.

    The 1.5 mile ride on the Hebron Trail was such a treat.

    PS: Thank you all for your generous gifts to a noble cause. Personally, this is a great encouragement, a good motivation and something meaningful to look forward to accomplishing this September with all of your cheer and support.
