Riding Dapper for Men's Health
1 MIN READ

Did you know there are plenty of ways to get involved and support men’s health throughout the year? One great example of this is the annual "Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride." On September 25th 2016, over 57,000 dapper gentlefolk in over 500 cities across the globe sat astride their classic styled motorcycles and flew the flag for men’s health taking part in the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride. This year in partnership with the Movember Foundation, the 2016 ride raised over USD $3.65M for prostate cancer research and work in male suicide prevention. Not only that, they started countless lifesaving conversations around the world putting issues around men’s health firmly on the radar, doing all this whilst demonstrating the very best character of the motorcycle community.
 
To all the gentlefolk who rode or supported, the Movember Foundation salutes you.
 
Like the Movember Foundation, the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride was conceived to make a positive change in the world by doing things differently. The ride is changing behaviour in men leading to happier, healthier and longer lives.
