Ballsy bikers create cancer awareness
CRAIGAVON - Local initiative, Snors for a Cause Motorcade is getting ballsy by partnering with More Balls than Most, Pink Drive's brother campaign.
Snors for a Cause Motorcade is an initiative aimed at raising awareness and funds for men’s health and cancer. They have announced More Balls than Most as their official 2014 partner and donation beneficiary. More Balls than Most is Pink Drive’s brother campaign, which is dedicated to promoting awareness of the importance of early detection of prostate and testicular cancer.
Snors for a Cause Motorcade 2014 together with More Balls Than Most, is inviting all South Africans riding on two or three wheels to unite, change the face of men’s health and make a difference in support of men’s health. All motorcycle riders, Harley Davidsons®, pit bikes, superbikes, cruisers, trikes, scooters and pillions are encouraged to join the parades taking place in ten regions nationally on 1 November. This charitable ride is set to be a first in South Africa.
According to the Cancer Association of South Africa, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in South African men. According to More Balls than Most, the number of prostate cancer cases is steadily increasing because of longer lifespan and a more westernised lifestyle. Testicular cancer on the other hand is one of the most common cancers in young men aged between 15 and 39.
“With Snors for a Cause Motorcade 2014 we are encouraging awareness and urging family, friends, colleagues and associates to get tested early,” said Trich Rosema of More Balls than Most. “In the past two decades. most men have survived prostate cancer and a continual diagnosis and early treatment can have an even bigger impact.”
Anyone can join the Snors for a Cause Motorcade and there is no registration fee.
Participants who want to make a donation towards the cause can purchase a limited edition Snors for a Cause buff for R130 on Harley-Davidson® Africa’s Facebook page. A limited number of Snors for a Cause pins will be made available to participating riders. In Johannesburg, the motorcade will depart from Ciao Baby Cucina in Cedar Square at 10:30am, but participants can meet from 8am.
