The Fly Program MTB Team

Developing Mental fitness is as important today to every persons wellbeing as physical fitness. It enables us to do life with a posture of gratitude which leads to be positive individuals in our community who walk with purpose and encourage others on their journey. Whilst there is many tools to develop our physical health, the topic of mental health is often overlooked and misunderstood, especially by men. The Fly Program seeks to raise awareness amongst the men in our communities and empower them to be both physically fit and mentally fit which in turn enables them to be better husbands, to be more present as fathers, to be empathetic and supportive mates to others, to be a brother to others who turn up. The Fly Program has impacted me personally profoundly and hundreds of others though Men in Flight weekend retreats that promote and practice physical activity alongside mental fitness with other men leading them on a path of discovery and purpose. The cost for one participant is $1400 to attend a Men in Flight weekend retreat. In February 20224 I will be riding in a mountain bike race over 3 days to raise funds to send one person to a Fly Program Men in Flight retreat. I wont be doing it alone, I will be part of a team (that includes my 16 year old son!) and collectively we aim to raise $20,000.00 that will go directly toward sponsoring participants through a retreat. The team is made up of elite athletes who dedicate this race to The Fly Program right through to people such as myself who will find this challenging to complete. Any financial support that you may lend will speak volumes to us as a group as well as myself. Your support will impact someone profoundly. I would love for you to partner with me as I train and prepare to make a difference to one person in our community. Please hit the the link below to donate in advance, thanks so much for your support.
