Support Our Fight. Help Us Conquer Cancer.

Hello, My name is Eugene and I'm a cancer fighter. I'm also team captain of Team BFFs (Bikes for Family and Friends).

Some of you may know my story.

I've been riding mountain bikes since immigrating from the Philippines in 1995. It's been my passion all these years. I've had my share of racing downhill in the years 1999 to 2003 in Senior Expert.


I've been fighting this nasty disease since 2004. I've endured one leg surgery, leg radiation, four lung surgeries, and twenty-one rounds of chemotherapy. And in between all these battles, I've tried to enjoy riding as much as I can.

My current prognosis: incurable and terminal. So yes, the medical community believes that I'm going to die of this disease. Sadly, there are millions of other people around the world that have or will have the same prognosis.

We are hoping to change that.

I've teamed up with my friends and colleagues to join The Ride To Conquer Cancer 2011, benefiting the BC Cancer Foundation.

All of us in Team BFF have been affected by this nasty disease, one way or another.

The Ride to Conquer Cancer benefiting BC Cancer Foundation, is a two-day 250+ Km cycling journey, from Vancouver to Seattle that we are embarking on to fight cancer. It will be a challenge in a number of ways, but with our bikes, our helmets, and your generosity, a real impact will be made!
Contribute to this history-making event with a donation.

Funds raised in The Ride to Conquer Cancer will support breakthrough research, exemplary teaching, and compassionate care made possible through BC Cancer Foundation, a leader in cancer research and care. And they use it as soon as they receive it, not when the bike ride happens.
This is a request for your financial support. A dollar for every kilometre that we will be riding would be absolutely awesome! You can donate over a period of time too, if you aren't able to give all at one time.

We thank you in advance for whatever you can give.

P.S. This will be my third year doing The Ride To Conquer Cancer, thanks in most part to the BC Cancer Agency and the BC Cancer Foundation. Without their breakthrough and innovative treatment and research, I would no longer be here.

Holding strong,
Eugene Bahia
