Andre
Langenhoven
Andre is a Cyclist & loves cycling for Cancer Awareness
Andre started cycling in July 2018. He needed to do something about his health and weight. He thought to himself.. "I have a beautiful wife and two young boys that I want to grow old with".
His journey for a healthier lifestyle began then. Riding for breast cancer or any type of cancer lies very close to his heart, his mom was diagnosed with breast cancer over 20 years ago. He lost a close friend to the disease, and has some close friends that beat the disease.
"If I can raise a little bit of awareness through riding, I believe that I made a small difference. I love riding, it makes me happy, keeps me healthy".
