The day was great
Monday 19th May 2025What a turn out. Beautiful day, brass monkeys but no rain.
The Mornington ride must be one of the best for road/scenery is a short ride distance.
To all my donors thank you so much. We have donated over $700 to this cause. I feel quite chuffed.
Next year here we come. Can't wait.

The 2nd Year
Friday 16th May 2025It was wet last year. With weeks of dry nice weather behind us this year it might be crap again on Sunday. But this is Melbourne. It's not the day but the time of day.
I have already bitten the dust on Arthurs Seat once before when i was 19 on a Yamaha XS500E. Note to self, never look too long in mirrors before looking ahead again! The corner went that way!
I love doing this charity ride. I was always shyte at growing a mo, but the team I was captain of did raise a few grand over 3 years or so. So now I can enjoy my passion and support an important cause. I can wear a jacket better than grow a mo.
Thank you for your donation, i really appreciate it.
cheers

I'm Riding for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride
Tuesday 25th Mar 2025 On Sunday the 18th of May 2025, 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
