Ryan Lyons, a commercial sales rep with Avison Young’s Toronto office, participated in the Sears National Kids Cancer Ride to raise funds and awareness for fighting childhood cancer. As one of 40-plus riders representing the national team, Lyons cycled from Vancouver to Halifax between Sept. 9 and 23, covering more than 7,000 km and stopping in 160 locations across Canada to raise funds.

 “At the beginning of the year two primary goals were at the top of my mind in order to prepare and qualify for the Sears National Kids Cancer Ride – raise $25,000 for the kids and log 10,000 km on the legs,” says Lyons. “I am proud to announce that we finally achieved these goals.”
