Stephen will be participating in Le Cure 2023 and will attempt to cycle 438 kilometers and climb 8,831 vertical metres.

Since starting Le Cure, Stephen has cycled the equivalent of the height of Mount Everest 1.13 times, and cycled around the m25 2.41 times! That's 10,034 vertical metres and 453 kilometres.

Cycling Experience:

In 2021, Stephen cycled a Camino route, the Voie de Tours, from Paris to the Spanish border, 1000 kilometers in 10 days. And more recently, in March 2022, he bike-packed unsupported, 850 kms of the Pacific Coast Highway from San Francisco to Los Angeles, with fellow Curista, Sean Perry, and a few other intrepid souls.

Biggest Fear:

Failing/not finishing!!

Reason For Doing This:

I enjoy challenges and Le Cure appears to be all that. More importantly, I have experienced enough loss to know that cancer sucks. Father, uncle, dear friends, and stellar colleagues gone; but a sister, sister-in-law, brother-in-law, and an equal number of dear friends and colleagues still surviving due to ongoing research and new treatments. Besides, finding cures for cancers is a lot more challenging than riding 443km and 9,345m of vertical in four days, so let's get on with it!
