When the very first Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride was held in Sydney in 2012, few could have imagined how big the fundraising ride would become, but the enthusiasm to ‘dress dapper’ and support prostate cancer research and men’s health programmes struck a chord with motorcyclists, leading to it becoming a global event that has raised in excess of $33 million and now sees more than 90,000 riders in 800+ cities take part annually.
While rider enthusiasm for the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride (DGR) has been there from the outset, one of the earliest corporate supporters was Triumph Motorcycles, who cameBonneville T120 (and matching Gibson Les Paul guitar) and the ‘Dapper Bonnie’ Bonneville T100.
