Hi all

I'll be participating in a 2-day major cycling event on the 27th-28th of October called The Ride to Conquer Cancer benefiting Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre.

I'll be cycling over 200kms that weekend, throughout the scenic Victoria, with thousands of other Riders. All the proceeds will go to Peter Mac, the only public hospital in Australia solely dedicated to cancer.

I've agreed to raise at least $2,500. So here's where you come in because I need your help to do that. Please consider making a donation. Use the link at the bottom of this email to go visit my webpage and support me. Please keep in mind the commitment I'm making to end this heartbreaking disease, and the personal efforts I'll have to make to accomplish this.

When I say "heartbreaking," here's what I mean: with 1 in 2 Australians diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime and an estimated 115,000 new cases of cancer diagnosed in Australia in 2011, cancer is the second leading cause of Australian deaths and affects almost 20% of the population. More than 43,600 people are expected to die from cancer in 2011. That's why I'm riding. To do something BIG about cancer. I hope that you'll share this incredible adventure with me by supporting my fundraising efforts.

Thank you in advance for your generosity!

Sincerely,

Erin
