In memory of my Dad
Monday 8th Apr 2024Hi all,
I thought I'd add a little more specificity from the default DGR intro post to mark my second year to participate.
As many of you know, my dad, Bob Werthmuller, passed away last December. Among Dad's many accomplishments in life - and there were many! - he was a two-time survivor of prostate cancer, not to mention two other, unrelated forms of cancer. (Yep, that's a 4x survivor, if you're counting.)
Given the focus of DGR and the Movember Foundation on battling prostate cancer, along with bringing attention to men's mental health, I'm dedicating my ride this year to my dad.
I'd appreciate any donation, no matter the size, to support these absolutely vital causes this year. Thank you in advance!
Peace,
Kurt
I'm Riding for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride
Monday 25th Mar 2024 On Sunday the 19th of May 2024, I'm riding in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before I press my tweed and polish my boots, I'm asking you to join me in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives.My Sponsors

Great dedication idea.
