Rev Your Engines for a Cause: Triumph & DGR 2024 Unite for Men's Healt
It's that time again! The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride (DGR) is inviting enthusiasts of classic and vintage motorcycles to mark their calendars for Sunday, May 19th, 2024, for a globally synchronized charity event. Triumph Motorcycles celebrates its 11th consecutive year of partnership with DGR, aiming to elevate awareness and gather funds for crucial men's health issues, including mental health and prostate cancer research.
Expanding Horizons: A Call to Unite
This year's DGR aspires to broaden its impact by organizing 1,000 rides worldwide under the banner "Side by Side, Worldwide". Triumph is leveraging its global dealer network to amplify participation, fostering community engagement and support for men's health initiatives.
A Reward for Generosity: The Thruxton Final Edition
In a move to motivate participants to raise more funds, Triumph will award the top fundraiser with a Thruxton Final Edition motorcycle. This model embodies the essence of café racer culture and is a tribute to the Thruxton's storied racing legacy. It features an exclusive Competition Green paint job, gold detailing, and artist signatures, promising to be a prized possession for collectors. The motorcycle also comes with a certificate of authenticity and a unique Final Edition engine badge.
Wear Your Support: Team Triumph and Exclusive Prizes
The launch of a new clothing line adorned with DGR and Triumph branding complements this year's ride. Furthermore, the introduction of Team Triumph offers participants the opportunity to connect with a global community of riders. The top five fundraisers within this group will receive exclusive Triumph X DGR apparel, celebrating their contribution to the cause.
