An Abbotsford man is aiming to raise $2,000 to help fight kids’ cancer by participating in the Great Cycle Challenge for the sixth consecutive year.

Carl Forde hopes to cycle a total of 1,300 kilometres as part of the event, which raises money for The Hospital for Sick Children’s SickKids Foundation.

Forde has ridden 6,639 kilometres in the previous five years he has participated and raised just under $6,000.

He said he continues to participate so that treatments can be developed and a cure can be found for childhood cancer.

“Kids should be living life, not fighting it,” he writes on his fundraising page.

Participants are asked to set a cycling goal for August and log their kilometres throughout the month.
