Why I'm riding?

Sunday 19th May 2024

A couple of years ago I had a health scare. I would get fatigued and winded taking the dog out, I put off going to the hospital until the Dr office told me I had to go to the ER. I had to deal with some hard truths that day about the state of my health. Since I take my health and those around me seriously, and encourage friends to get regular check ups. Growing up with unhealthy ideas about men and health it's taken a lot of relearning and education to get me to where I am at today.  

 So this is a chance for me to play it forward, help educate and spread awareness, and I am excited for the ride.  

I'm Riding for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride

Monday 1st Apr 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.
