Together we can and make a difference
Tuesday 29thGday all, one of my favourite little rides is here .The year again disrupted by Covid variants has taken its toll and this is another reason why the DGR plays an important part in highlighting mental health.
Firstly a big thankyou to every person, business, organisation, our family and friends for the help in letting us become the highest fundraising team in Australia and the third highest fundraising team globally. Your generosity has been overwhelming , a little mining and steel village on the east coast of Australia amongst 678 cities and 104 countries globally. Along with these awesome results two of the team individually became 2nd and 3rd highest fundraisers globally. This was made possible thanks to all that donated to the distinguished gentleman’s cause. (The 2nd and 3rd highest fundraisers received a new Triumph motorcycle. See link below)
DGR the cause
- unites classic and vintage style motorcycle riders all over the world to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer research and mens mental health
I’m sure there’s nobody out there that has not been touched by the effects directly or indirectly of prostate cancer or the cause to prevent male suicide.
SKIN IN THE GAME
- what is it ?
Our original team of four has decided that if we are fortunate enough to raise enough funds worldwide to be awarded the 1st,2nd or 3rd prize globally, we will be passing this on to one of you that has donated. At the completion of the targeted fundraising date each person, business, organisation will get a number to be placed into a barrel. This will be ratified by representatives of DGR and drawn from the barrel by that representative at Wollongongs hosts for the rides business, City Coast Motocycles. Tim and Jane Sim continue to do a marvellous job organising the Wollongong ride. They put a great deal of time into the event and we can only imagine the logistics behind the ride itself, liaising with authorities on traffic routes etc.
The “ FOUR CURE” team is everyone that donates to this exceptional
cause. We will all have “ skin in the game” so once again we ask for your support in raising much needed funds
If you would like to check out our team gallery you will maybe read between the lines on some of the antics behind the scenes. For one, if any rider was late to the start up breakfast meet prior to riding to gather for the DGR ride there would be a fine to every rider on the team, yep someone had to b late didn’t they. It’s all for the charity guys

Join our team as we ride for The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride!Friday 25thOn Sunday the 22nd May 2022, we are teaming up to ride in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before we press our tweed and polish our boots, we are asking you to join us in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives.
