We will be meeting at our normal place of Australia Park at 9am to motor on down to Myrtleford to meet up the the rest of the fundraisers.
I plan to car and trailer it down with my old 1935 Norton 16 on float. I will have room for two more motorbikes if anyone else would be interested. Just email me at editor@awmec.com.au

HOW IT ALL STARTED
The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride was founded in 2012 by Mark Hawwa in Sydney, Australia, after being inspired by a photo of Mad Men’s Don Draper astride a classic bike, wearing his finest suit.
It was decided a themed ride would be a great way to combat the often-negative stereotype of men on motorcycles, whilst connecting niche motorcycle communities together.
That first ride brought together over 2,500 riders across 64 cities, with the success of the event encouraging Mark to consider how it could be used to support a worthy cause. The rest, as they say, is eloquently attired history.
