BikePacking 600km & 24k ft of mountain climbs around Vancouver Island · 18 July 2025

We are My Name'5 Doddie Foundation and we're absolutely committed to our goal: A World Free of MND. We will leave no stone unturned in the relentless pursuit of this goal as we fund, guide and enable the smartest, most efficient MND research to catalyse a cure for motor neuron disease.

Story

Adrian & Adam are teaming up to raise money to create a World Free from MND (Motor Neuron Disease).

MND is one of most cruel diseases and we would be delighted if you'd join the cause and donate to Doddie Weir's MND fund: "My Name'5 Doddie Foundation".

To help fight this disease we're going to cycle, unsupported, over 600km through the wilderness of Vancouver Island. The route has more than 24,000 ft of mountain climbs with 16% inclines alongside the bears, cougars & wolves. And we'll be camping !

Adam:

Is aiming to raise money for Motor Neuron Disease (termed ALS in America) in support of his good friend Nick who he met whilst coaching rugby in Michigan, USA. Nick lives in Seattle and has been living with MND for over three years. Like many sufferers, he is a strong and defiant man, living life to the max with his wife and four kids in-spite of his significant physical restrictions.

Adrian:

Recently lost his cousin, Amanda Clarkson. Amanda was a physio and had spent her life caring for others. She was diagnosed with a type of MND called Progressive Bulbar Palsy (PBP) where the muscles controlling speech, swallowing, and chewing deteriorate making vocal communication impossible and feeding through a tube into the stomach.

We'd both like to thank you for your support, it means a lot to us.
