I'm Riding For

Elliott Belair

Elliott’s mom, Natalie, and I went to Lawrence Tech together, where we were both very active in Greek Life. Our friendship has remained strong long after graduation. The Belair family has shown incredible strength throughout Elliott’s journey fighting ATRT. What a trooper and inspiration he has been. This year, I am dedicating my 500-mile ride to Elliott and his amazing support system.

My Story

4 Sep 2025

I’m biking 500 miles around the Chicago area to raise funds and awareness for Children’s Cancer Research. It’s my fourth year participating, and I’m determined to make it the best one yet!

This year, I’m inspired by Elliott, the son of an old college friend, who has shown incredible strength through his journey with ATRT. As I hit the pavement this month, I’ll be channeling his courage and resilience. Your support and donations will make a real difference, helping families like Elliott’s not just survive, but thrive.

Please consider contributing and joining me in this fight against childhood cancer.
