Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride | Pisa

The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride brings together classic and vintage motorcyclists from around the world for charity. Founded in Sydney in 2012 by Mark Hawwa, it was inspired by a photo of Don Draper, the protagonist of Mad Men, riding a classic motorbike wearing his best suit.

Mark decided that a themed motorcycle ride would be a great way to combat the often negative stereotype of motorcyclists and, at the same time, connect exclusive motorcycling communities. Over the years, more than £40 million has been raised, with over 500,000 people participating each year, 121 countries and over 900 cities around the world.
