Founded by Mark Hawwa, the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride has grown into the world’s largest charity motorcycle event. For the 12th consecutive year, the event was proudly supported by Triumph Motorcycles, while also celebrating 10 years of partnership with Movember. Together, these collaborations have expanded the scope of the initiative to include men’s mental health alongside prostate cancer.

"Everyone involved at Triumph is proud to have played a key role, in collaboration with Mark Hawwa and his team, in growing this incredible community."

“Every year, our community unites to raise critical funds and awareness,” said Hawwa. “To see over 125,000 riders take to the streets in more than 1,000 cities is nothing short of extraordinary. We’ve reached incredible milestones together, and it’s inspiring to witness how far we’ve come.”Milestones and Partnerships
