I'm Riding For
Batur
My Story
This October, I'm taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer, and this ride is deeply personal for me.
In 2019, I lost my beautiful son Batur to DIPG, a rare and aggressive brain cancer. There are still very few treatment options for DIPG, and too many families are left facing it without hope. I know that pain, and I don't want other parents to go through it.
Cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in Australia. Every month, 90 children are diagnosed, and sadly, 3 die every week. Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
So this October I'm riding in Batur's memory and raising funds for the Children's Medical Research Institute. Their work into prevention, diagnosis, treatment and a cure for childhood cancer gives families like mine hope.
To everyone who has supported our family through this journey, thank you. Your kindness has carried us more than you know. If you can, please support my challenge by donating through my fundraising page. Every kilometre I ride and every dollar raised is for Batur, and for the children still fighting.
Together, we can save little lives.
With love and gratitude,
Muhammet Ozcelik

“Thank you for the generous donation! 💜 Our stories might not be the same, but having a similar experience of losing someone we love to cancer gives us a connection that words can’t fully explain. I truly appreciate your support, and I hope we can continue raising awareness and make a difference no family should have to go through the pain. 🙏”
