PERSONAL STATEMENT

Biking across the country to raise funds for cancer research will be a deeply rewarding and purposeful experience. Combining my love for cycling with my commitment to the fight against cancer, I will embark on this journey with a heart full of hope. Pedaling through diverse landscapes and connecting with inspiring individuals affected by cancer, I will witness the strength of the human spirit and the power of collective action. Together, we will make a difference, raising vital funds, and contributing to the ongoing battle against this devastating disease. This ride will be a testament to the belief that by coming together, we can create a future where cancer is no longer a threat.
