Tally Bally Ho!
Finally, I have managed to put my edit together of this year’s Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride – Oxford 2021.
I hope you enjoy watching this and thinking about the issues raised. Until next time…
Prostate Cancer is the most common cancer in men. 307,000 men will die from prostate cancer each year.
Suicide is the biggest killer of men aged 20 – 39, with 75% of all suicides being male.
510,000 men die from suicide each year, that’s one every minute.
These are numbers that we seek to drastically change and can only be made possible through the generosity of people like you who answer the call to make this world a better place.
The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride is in aid of fathers, brothers and sons who have been or will be affected by Prostate Cancer. It’s the biggest killer of men.
The ride is to raise funds and awareness. As it is so prevalent (more men die of prostate cancer every year than women do of breast cancer (definitely NOT a competition but not nearly as well publicised)) we need to do something about this. Finding a cure but also helping to fund care is the main reason for the ride.
Secondly, but no less important is men’s mental health awareness. 1 man kills himself every minute across the world. THIS MUST STOP.
Men need to realise that there is always someone to help and to talk to. This is all part of the awareness.
I hope that I have done some small part in raising more awareness with this video.
Thank you to all those who sponsored us and helped us to raise the much needed cash!
Thank you very much for watching.
Tally Bally Ho!

I'd like to mention my Father, his name was Jack – affectionately remembered as Gentleman Jack
His early diagnosis and treatment meant he lived with prostate cancer, symptom free for more than 20yrs. His willingness to seek help saved his life, God Bless him. Do the same.
Excellent well done Sir that was a great day out
Well done to you and all who took part in the ride to raise awareness!
Thank you for doing this, I will do it next year all being well. Unfortunately my father got diagnosed just over 2 years ago with prostate cancer, spread to his bones and this week we were told that it was in his lungs and shoulder and it's just a matter of weeks before…
Believe me when I say as a carer for him, that any so called embarrassment getting tested is far outweighed by the assistance you will need as the disease progresses and the treatment you will undergo.
Authorisation who needs that 😂
Well done captain rambuncus and the sqaddran and it's so important all you mentioned and talking to others and great bikes all of them and say well done to the sqaddran and look forward to the next vid
well done, yes lets raise awareness on both of these issues , oxford a lovely place, what is the pannier on your bike look a good fit
Oxford is such a pretty city. Perfect place for the DGR… other than the traffic management! 😀
Captain! I just realised that the ride this year was in June and not September and so could have done it. Just goes to show what a complete plank i can be. :0(
Looks a too day out with some great people. Must admit Im always very split about going to a DGR ride. It’s a great cause and who doesn’t love wearing a bit of tweed. But wouldn’t ride with zero armour. Pulling tweed out of gravel rash would not be pleasant. The cost of under armour so high I tend to just make a donation rather than attending.
