Distinguished Gentleman's Ride (DGR)

Distinguished Gentleman's Ride - May 17, 2026


Officially the world's largest charity event for classic and vintage motorcycle enthusiasts, the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride (DGR) returns on Sunday May 17, 2026.

Triumph Motorcycles returns as Official Motorcycle Partner for the 13th year and its 950 strong global dealership network in 68 countries will be helping The DGR achieve even greater heights this year.


The DGR mission is raising much needed money in support of Men's Health Charities, especially Mental Health and Prostate Cancer, not least through its support of 'Movember'. That mission saw a record 127,000 riders participating in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride in 2025, raising $7.6m.


For 2026 Triumph Motorcycles is giving riders a chance to win a special one-off custom Speed Twin 1200 Cafe Racer DGR Edition, created exclusively for this year's event.

Created 15 years ago in Sydney, Australia by Mark Hawwa, and now takes place worldwide. In 2025 those 127,000 riders participated in 1,038 separate rides across 108 countries.


Triumph became the official motorcycle partner of the DGR in 2014, bringing a commitment to increase awareness, grow participation, and increase fundraising in support of this worthy cause. Last year's $7.6m raised brought the 15-year total to $60.37m.
