The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride (DGR) officially announced its highly anticipated 2025 event; taking place on Sunday, May 18, 2025, across more than 1,000 cities worldwide. This iconic global charity event, dedicated to raising awareness and funds for men’s mental health and prostate cancer research, promises to be the largest edition yet, with an expanded lineup of partners and rewards for participants.
Since its inception in 2012, the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride has brought together motorcycle enthusiasts dressed in their finest attire to champion men’s health in collaboration with the world’s leading men’s health charity, Movember. Over the past decade, DGR has played a pivotal role in raising awareness and millions of dollars for men’s health causes.
Mark Hawwa, the founder of The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride, expressed his excitement about the event’s growth: “Ten years ago, we knew we needed to do more for men’s health. That’s why we partnered with Movember, and together with our incredible community, we’ve made a real impact in supporting prostate cancer research and men’s mental health. We are proud to continue riding dapper for men’s health.”
A Global Celebration of Classic Motorcycles and Men’s Health
The 2025 edition of DGR will once again feature Triumph Motorcycles as the Official Motorcycle Partner, marking its 12th consecutive year of support. Triumph’s Chief Commercial Officer, Paul Stroud, emphasized the importance of this collaboration.
“The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride brings riders together from around the world to raise awareness and funds for men’s health. Each year, the event grows, reaching more people and reinforcing the sense of community among riders. We are honored to continue our partnership and contribute to this crucial cause.”
Luxury helmet manufacturer Hedon Helmets, a decade-long partner of DGR, will once again reward the top 100 fundraisers with exclusive, limited-edition helmets. The event also welcomes Brett Eyewear as a new sponsor, adding a touch of luxury and style to the distinguished riders participating in this global movement.
