Hey Steve

Just received my May edition of 'Riding On' and am so appreciative of your article. I've been a 'Junior' member of the Ulysses Club for about 2 years now (sad to say I've not been on a ride yet) but am crossing over to full membership this week as I reach the 50 year old mark.

Black Dog Ride 2010 for Black Dog Institute

The Black Dog Institute is an educational, research, clinical and community-oriented facility offering specialist expertise in mood disorders - a range of disorders that include depression and Bipolar Disorder (formerly called 'manic depression'). The Institute is attached to the Prince of Wales Hospital and affiliated with the University of New South Wales.

The Institute's mission is to advance the understanding, diagnosis and management of the mood disorders by continuously raising clinical, research, education and training standards. In so doing, the Institute aims to improve the lives of those affected - and in turn - the lives of their families and friends.

Depression impacts 1 in 5 Australians and according to the World Health Organisation, depression will be the number 1 cause of disability by 2030. Exercise is a great way to lift mood and relieve some symptoms of depression and anxiety. Exercise Your Mood Week from 11 to 19 September 2010 aims to educate all Australians about the benefits of regular exercise on your mental health. So get off the couch and get involved.
