    PNOA 团队奋力骑行,征服 2025 年加拿大Great Cycle Challenge!

    ByTimothy Chen October 7, 2025October 7, 2025

    当夏日的风拂过太平洋西北地区的山林,有一支队伍正在为生命奋力骑行。今天,我们怀着无比自豪的心情,分享太平洋西北户外协会(PNOA)在2025年加拿大”Great Cycle Challenge”中取得的骄人成绩——这不仅是数字的突破,更是爱心的接力,是17颗炽热之心为抗击儿童癌症共同谱写的动人篇章。 超越预期:里程碑式骑行 从第一天起,PNOA 团队就设定了雄心勃勃的目标,通过 SickKids 基金会为希望与治愈注入动力。我们的筹款目标?5,000 加元。我们实现了什么?高达8,694.59 加元的筹款额——几乎是目标的两倍!每一元善款都通过SickKids基金会直接用于儿童癌症的创新治疗和治愈,支持这样一个令人心碎的现实:在加拿大,癌症夺走了比任何其他疾病更多的年轻生命,每年有超过 1,700 名儿童被诊断出患病。 在骑行方面,我们集体目标是5,000 公里。团队以223 次激动人心的骑行、7,746 公里的总里程远远超越目标,骑行总里程意味着我们足以从温哥华骑行往返多伦多整整两个来回!在全国范围内,我们排名所有队伍的第 51 位,领先数百支团队,并在与我们同类别的队伍中排名第22位,展现了PNOA的坚韧与社区精神。 聚光灯下的明星骑手 让这项挑战真正特别的是数据背后的故事。6名首次参加这个活动的新人们给我们的队伍带来了新鲜的活力,包括杰出人物如Laura,她征服了448.8 公里并筹集了547 加元,以及Lisa,她奋力骑行538.9 公里,带来了673 加元的善款。这些新人全力投入,激励着我们所有人。 鼓舞人心的少年勇士: GCC的宗旨是为孩子们而战,而我们最年轻的成员展现了惊人的毅力。让我们为6岁的Avi热烈鼓掌,他骑行了惊人的326.5公里并筹得880加元;同样为8岁的Zoe喝彩,她奋力完成了609.7公里的骑行,也筹得了880加元。他们的小轮子转动着大梦想,他们用行动证明:关爱无年龄之分,善举从小开始!他们是激励我们所有人的榜样! 对于耐力王者,Douglas Qi以2,345 公里的最长骑行加冕冠军——这是对坚定承诺的证明。同时,Timothy已连续10 年参加Great Cycle Challenge活动,是团队中最长期坚持的成员,也是大家学习的榜样!🙌 我们还庆祝了温馨时刻,比如Garron家族在“Kick Cancer’s Butt日”匹配捐赠,为骑手如 Timothy(578.41 加元)、Yi Yan(533.83 加元)和 Zoe Ren(345.92 加元)提升了总额。支持者的鼓励留言,如“全力骑行🚵‍♀️”和“骑行和帮助生病儿童做得好”,让我们的精神高涨。 衷心感谢 没有我们热情的赞助者、骑手和啦啦队的支持,这一切都不可能实现。向慷慨的捐赠者致谢,他们相信我们的使命,将同情转化为行动。向我们的骑手致谢,无论是在雨中奋力前行,还是在家人的加油声中坚持不懈,你们的投入与热情都创造了奇迹!向每一位分享我们的故事、点赞我们的更新,或仅仅相信儿童无癌未来的支持者——从我们心底感谢你们。你们不仅帮助我们超额完成目标,还为拯救小生命提供了关键的资金支持。 继续骑行:欢迎明年加入我们! PNOA GCC 2025团队的成功证明,从我们最年轻的骑手到最富经验的骑手,每个人都能带来真正的改变。团队的情谊、个人的成就以及集体努力带来的深远影响,使得这不仅仅是一场骑行挑战——更是我们一年中最精彩的篇章。 如果你被激励(我们希望如此!),请在日历上标记2026年8月。无论你是两轮新手还是资深转动者,都加入我们,在PNOA 团队页面注册、捐赠或传播消息。 无论您是经验丰富的骑手还是休闲骑行爱好者,您的努力都将为这项崇高事业贡献力量!! 只要有一颗愿意付出的心,都可以加入PNOA团队,欢迎在PNOA 团队页面注册、捐赠或传播消息。一起为孩子们骑行,为生命加油!🚲💙 Video Courtesy of…
