OUR MISSION
The Male Bag Foundation Ltd is firmly focused on men’s health.
Our annual fundraising rides on ex-Australia Post Honda motorcycles raise community awareness of prostate cancer. Funds raised through rider sponsorship and corporate donations allow us to partner with rural public hospitals to provide safe, accurate, targeted prostate biopsies in rural areas where they are most needed.
Prostate cancer is a most insidious disease. 20,000 men are diagnosed annually, and around 3,300 lives are lost every year.
As a recognised not-for-profit charity, all donations to The Male Bag Foundation are tax deductible. If you can’t sign up to join our ride, please consider making a donation.

This years " Postie ride " is on this coming Oct 23/25 weekend traveling around Ballarat and the Grampians where we have donated Biopsy devices and supplied Prostate cancer nursing support. We have a team of 20 riders plus 5 supporters and will travel close to 700 km over the 3 days.
My own journey with Prostate cancer continues now past 10 years but challengers and further treatment likely but in good hands and advice.
Hoping your able to support this ride as many have over the years to this great cause with all funds going directly to country hospitals and health centres to support men struggling with getting to early detection and then support.

Finished late yesterday after 300km in the rain back from dunkeld and exhausted but all but 3 made it to the end with a couple of retirees.( over 80 ).
We did 900km over the 3 days and raised over $35000 and my donors helped me get to almost $8000 so get effort.
Funds now go to prostate regional testing and support services and direct so great cause

PSA is a no brainer !! I never found a cancer with my finger that didn’t come up on a PSA !! Some Drs only do PSA if you ask !! Which is crazy !! Finding out early is the key !!
In for an operation next week. Kidneys, bladder and postrste.
All males > 30 should get an annual PSA test. Much easier and more accurate than the old ‘Manly Warringah’!
Good work Ingilby - i would love to join you next year
