raised $985 since 2024
My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Prostate cancer
Mental health and suicide prevention

Globally, more than 1.4M men are diagnosed with prostate cancer each year. Movember is working to reduce the number of deaths from prostate cancer, and I want to help them get there. Help me stop men dying too young.

I was diagnosed with prostate cancer when I was 59.
I was bomb proof at the time.
I just pee'd, alot !

Finally I had the simple psa blood test - bam !
Result was 60 !
Should be less than 4 !

Not good.

So some surgery, and some radiation later....... And lots of support from Nepean Hospital and friends.

All now looks good.

Life is precious !

So enjoy it. Make a difference, and if you are past 50......

Take the test !

A massive Thankyou !
To Tristan and Bikeminded.
For the donation, and all the help.
A great place to buy a bike.
Hell, even a Penny Farthing if you're mad enough :)

This is a message for the hesitant blokes out there !
Especially on International Men's Health Day !
Seeking and starting treatment can seem like that first ever ride on a Penny Farthing !
Somewhat terrifying............
But good times are just around the corner !

Now let's just clear something up !
I'm not a great lover of superfluous rules !
So when I declared my intention of joining Movember, the eagle eyed would spot that I did get off to a flying start !
I was given a hard time for not abiding by the rules of Movember ( starting clean !)
I did get a lot of attention !
And that's the whole point of it, to talk about men's health and to raise some money for the cause !
So to quiet the retentive, I am " Mo your own way !"
Time to start - riding a Penny Farthing for 100 km over Movember, with a Mo !

Prostate cancer is one of the more detectable types of cancer, starting with a simple blood test.
It doesn't hurt
And it might just save your life !
This cancer is VERY common, with many of my mates also suffering.
Forget what you may have read, about lifestyle and exercise.
I have lost count of the number of marathons and endurance events I have done ( including the SixFoot track marathon maybe 14 times ).

My running buddy is a bona fide Yogi !
Also ran many marathons, almost completely vegitarian, and considerably more clean living than me !
He was diagnosed just before I was !

We are currently both tracking well and both running and cycling with gusto !

Bam !
Movember off to a flying start !
What every over 50 year old male should consider !
Off to the local pathology centre to get my latest PSA blood test !
