My reason for riding.

Tuesday 30th Apr 2024

This year will be my first DGR. I've seen the event previously and thought it would be fun to participate but in all honesty, didn't understand the driver behind it and the goal to raise funds and awareness for prostrate cancer men's mental health.

Last year a good friend and former colleague was diagnosed with prostrate cancer and has been undergoing treatment. As us men discuss such things more openly, we learn about other friends and people we know who have also been diagnosed & successfully treated.

This year I'm riding for my friend, our friends and all men.

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.
