Gloucestershire Motorcycle Socials, Rides and Tours

Local Distinguished Gentleman's Ride running for the 3rd year having raised £13,000 so far, raising funds for prostate cancer charities and male mental health.

The ride will be on Sunday the 19th of May departing at 10am from Imperial Square, Cheltenham after a briefing, arrival from 9:00. Route to include a visit to Sudeley Castle and then Dunkerton's Cider. Event is sponsored by The Biker Company, Sudeley Castle and Dunkertons. The organiser and host is Liam Dunn.

To take part in this event you need to register and make a donation via the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride website. Dress in suitably dapper attire and preferably astride a classic or retro bike if you have one. I'm currently enquiring about the eligibility of more modern machinery.

100% of funds raised will go to Movember Europe who will then refund the DGR to cover their costs associated with running the event. No less than 80% of the total funds raised will be invested directly into projects. It is Movember policy that funding awards do not allow or support institutional overhead so they can maximise the level of funding applied to research, health services interventions and their evaluation.

Having contacted the organiser I'm in on my inappropriately modern Multistrada Hopefully my best mate Carl can come on his Douglas to act as an age offset

Anyone else going?

Anyway, if you feel like sponsoring me then click here.

Couldn't have hoped for better weather. A very enjoyable event, well organised and managed. An impressive turnout and great local headline sponsorship from Queens Hotel, The Biker Company, Sudeley Castle, Dunkertons Cider, The Brotherhood Boot and Revs-Hogs MCs. The Cheltenham ride raised over £18k and counting. The event globally raised an impressive $7m!!!

There's a video of the departure from Imperial Square, Cheltenham on Facebook. I appear at 1:17 on my Multistrada closely followed by Carl on the TT Panther.

Anyway, here are some photos
