Distinguished Gentleman's Ride 2021

Catch up time. 

The DGR was done and dusted. The planned ride didn't happen and I went out in the briefly dry morning. 

Luckily shit and water free roads.

Onto next year?

Distinguished Gentleman's Ride 2021

I consider myself distinguished. I am most definitely a gentleman and I ride a motorcycle.  Sadly though, not a motorcycle proscribed as being the kind that can take part n the DGR. Until now.

Although a Triumph, the Rocket isn't the sort of bike that even a charity ride sponsored by Triumph Motorcycles want so have on display.


So I will do the 2021 even on Suzi instead. There is section on the "style guide" for classics. And at 44 years old, Suzi is a classic.

It's Sunday May 23rd.  Due to the global pandemic there are different options for the rides and they are devised to cut down on possible social distancing problems. 

I have chosen the "Solo Ride" option.  I have a route planned to leave home arounf 10am,  and head through the Kent countryside stopping for a break at H's cafe by Kent Motorcycles and then a ride home in a roundabout manner. Thus completing a circle and because I have loads of FB friends, I will make some money for men's health and mental health.  

My donations page is:  https://gfolk.me/invictamoto

Please consider maybe donating the cost of a beer or that Starbuck's coffee you might have bought today....
