It was a great surprise.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>A Special Reason To Ride<\/h4>\n<p>When Mick saw that he could Ride for a reason again on his one year wedding anniversary, he jumped at the chance to combine his love of riding with a very special milestone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was always going to take part in the Clare Classic but when I saw that I could also fundraise for Cancer Council SA I knew that there was no turning back. Combine that with our one year wedding anniversary \u2013 I\u2019m a stickler for anniversaries \u2013 I knew I had to do it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a great way to continue our story,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>This year is the first year that the Clare Classic has joined together with Cancer Council\u2019s Ride for a reason to support those South Australians impacted by cancer.<\/p>\n<p>Mick, a testicular cancer survivor, knows all too well the life-changing impact of a cancer diagnosis. Even though he was diagnosed more than 20 years ago, he says that his cancer experience will never leave him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI first went to the doctor because I knew something was wrong. When I had my blood tests I just burst out crying \u2013 the nurse looked at me and said \u201cdon\u2019t worry, it\u2019s only blood\u201d. I said, \u201cI don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on at the moment, but whatever it is, I don\u2019t feel right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Following his diagnosis, Mick endured the most challenging year of his life, which saw him undergo nine weeks of chemotherapy and lose his right testicle.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.clareclassic.com.au\/pricing\">Register For The Clare Classic Here<\/a><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4235\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4235\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4235 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.clareclassic.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_3537-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4235\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mick Swaffer is proud to be &#8216;Riding for a reason&#8217; at the Clare Classic on April 8.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>A Chance To Give Back To Others<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>Mick is thrilled to say that 24 years on, he remains cancer free.

Along the way, I\u2019ve met lots of people who have suffered from cancer. I\u2019ve seen people lose friends, wives, mothers, fathers and brothers and everyone impacted has been really supportive of my ride.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s great \u2013 people stop me on the street and say \u2018we love you doing this\u2019 and \u2018keep on going Swaff.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even though he\u2019s got the support of the community behind him, it\u2019s the support of one person that matters the most.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the end of the day, it\u2019s about me and Marie, there\u2019s nothing more to it. I start the race by myself and finish it by her side.
