Clubroom > General Discussion
Riders Against Depression
supersenior 50:
I was inspired by Stephen Relf (Relfi) to start this thread, and before going further I ask that you read the following topics:-
GENERAL DISCUSSION " Not VMX but of interest (men's depression)"
VINDURO "Aussie 4 Day Starters"
"2014 Masters Games"
After much discussion with Stephen and others I have set in motion a project to raise money and awareness of this major problem in our society. The initial focus is on Stephen Relf, now joined by Nathan Senior, to use their entry into the 4 Day as a platform to achieve this through sponsorship and fundraising. Secondly, the PanPacifi Masters Vinduro/Enduro will be a signature event as a fundraiser for this cause.
Support can be given on an individual basis, or as a club based project. Already Heaven and the Gold Coast Motorcycle Enthusiasts Club have indicated interest.
This is all above board and official. We are registered with Beyond Blue as an approved fund raiser, have set up an account with Everyday Hero, and have approval from the Masters organisers.
Rather than write a book here, if you read the topics mentioned above and check out the Beyond Blue and Everyday Hero sites it should be clear. Any queries can be directed to [email protected]

Updates as we go along.

A great initiative Col, I've set this one to sticky so it'll stay up top.

Well done Col, you do a lot for our sport and this is another good cause. ;)

Hi ,
If you send me your email i'll send you a poster which you could send on to your contacts, and maybe print a few for bike shops etc.
Thanks,
Colin
