Mission Statement
The Get Lost…Find Yourself Foundation
The Get Lost…Find Yourself Foundation is a registered non-profit society, dedicated to supporting men’s mental health and well-being through adventure, community, and connection. Built on the belief that the road less traveled can lead to powerful personal growth, we create motorcycle-based retreats, events, and resources that encourage men to open up, support one another, and find strength in shared experiences.
Through off-road riding, camping, and meaningful conversations, we provide a space where riders can disconnect from the pressures of daily life and reconnect with themselves. Whether it’s a weekend retreat or our annual gala fundraiser, every event is designed to break the stigma surrounding mental health and empower men to seek help when they need it.
Get lost in the wild. Find yourself in the journey.
The Get Lost...Find Yourself Foundation uses adventure as a catalyst for connection, healing, and conversation around mental health and mental wellbeing. By bringing people together in supportive outdoor settings, we create opportunities for education, openness, and meaningful community that can change - and save - lives.
Chris Bragg is the founder of the Get Lost…Find Yourself Foundation and the creator of Critter Moto, a Canadian adventure-motorcycling platform built around connection, community, and mental well-being. A lifelong rider, successful entrepreneur, husband of 25 years, and father of five, Chris combines off-road travel with honest storytelling to create spaces where people feel seen, supported, and not alone.
Like many, Chris quietly carried untreated depression for years. In 2022, believing he would become a burden to those he loved, that struggle led him to a suicide attempt. Fortunately, he found the strength to seek help—an experience that profoundly changed the course of his life. Through finding support, resources such as HeadsUpGuys, and a renewed sense of purpose, Chris went on to found the Get Lost…Find Yourself Foundation to raise awareness and funds for men’s mental health.
By openly sharing his story and the tools that helped him heal, Chris has helped build a strong, compassionate community grounded in safety, understanding, and hope. He is Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) Certified and continues to prioritize his own mental health through education, counselling, and community-driven events—using adventure as a catalyst for conversation, healing, and purpose, both on and off the bike.
Summer Hurst is a core pillar of the Get Lost…Find Yourself Foundation and a passionate advocate for inclusion, connection, and mental well-being through motorcycling. MHFA Certified, Summer hosts Women Only Rides on Vancouver Island, creating welcoming, supportive spaces where riders of all experience levels can build confidence and community. Her leadership, compassion, and commitment to helping others feel safe and seen have been instrumental in the growth and continued existence of GLFY.
Kevin Fuson is a key leader within the Get Lost…Find Yourself Foundation and a driving force behind its continued success. MHFA Certified, a volunteer firefighter, and an avid off-road rider, Kevin brings a calm, grounded presence and a deep commitment to service both on and off the bike. His willingness to show up, support others, and lead by example has been instrumental in shaping the culture, safety, and strength of the GLFY community.
