Update

I just updated the June 1, 2015, post with the most recent itinerary.  I will keep the itinerary up to date as I receive changes.  Thank you!

Updated Itinerary

Dad is on his way once again to start his journey cycling across Canada June 11, 2015.  This time he is heading East to West.  Dad was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer a couple of years ago and once again he is cycling to support and raise awareness for Thyroid Cancer as well as Prostate Cancer.  Dad is having someone join him on his ride from Ottawa to Thunder Bay.  If you can open your home and give him a meal, shower and bed for the night it would be appreciated.  Please email me to confirm accommodation.

 its all about working hard,[suffering] and when we are going down a hill we’re having a good day

From the East coast to the west coast he will ride-
Raising money for cancer with God by his side
 
No matter the weather on his back,
He is determined to help those with cancer fight back
 
 His strength comes from within
and we admire his discipline
 
Keep him safe Dear Lord as he cycles his best
and help us realize we have all been blessed
 
Thank you Gary for all you do
Please know that we are all there for you!
 
When you return home with your giant grin
We hope and pray that for other's cancer won't win!

Thyroid Cancer Research & Prostate Cancer Awareness Biking Across Canada Jones' Journey 2015

June 11, 2015, has been designated the starting time of my upcoming event, a journey on two wheels across the second largest country in the world.  The joy and laughter which we balance on two wheels brings together our spirituality which shines hope, faith and attitude.

Your financial contributions and all donations will go directly to Gary Biking, Thyroid Cancer Research at the QEII Health Sciences Centre & Prostate Cancer Canada Awareness.

Cheques can be made payable to Gary Biking, Cancer Research through the Bank of Nova Scotia.

 honest to GOD    " I won't tell a soul"

 

Riding for faith and hope with attitude East to West!  Okay "I agree" so lets give 100% passion at giving back.  At age 70 $70,000 no matter how small or large it is important for cancer research.

Just as it ended in 2010 in St. John's, Newfoundland, we will begin a new journey by dipping the bike tire in the Atlantic Ocean, June 13, 2015, going from East to West to raise awareness for cancer.

It could happen to anyone!  I am no different than anyone else.

Giving a voice, making awareness, sharing stories!

Here I go again, five years later, biking for cancer.  It is important that we express ourselves and our strengths.

"It's all about smiling"



Thyroid Story

"New" Thyroid Oncology Clinic(ITOC) patient and family information centre launched December 7, 2012. Gary Jones, a Thyroid cancer survivor from Halifax, inspired patients across the country when he cycled solo from Victoria BC to Halifax, and then to Newfoundland, to raise funds for Thyroid Cancer Awareness and Research at the QE11. Gary's donatin is helping to create a new Patient Information Centre to help Thyroid patients and their families better understand their diagnosis. The centre will include an online information tool that patients can access at the clinic and from home to learn about their disease and treatment options. An opening ceremony, unveiling and a dedication to Gary was held on December 7, 2012 at the QE11. Thanks to Gary Jones for his commitment to making a difference. Among other benefits, this project supported by the funds Gary raised, will greatly increase Thyroid Cancer Awareness and provide a resource for patient education.
