The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride London DGR 2024

[@KellyBarron-c2k]

The best DGR video I have seen thus far. Excellent videography. Triumphs and tweed. Liked the music as well.

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks, very nice of you to say!

[@EastboundDwn]

Fantastic! Thank you for sharing...👍

[@ClassicRides]

You’re quite welcome 🙏

[@YangCalgary]

Excellent! Here we didn't have that much fun. Cold and rainy. Also broke up into small groups because of traffic. The guys who revv when in idle got on my nerves after a while. A great cause!

[@ClassicRides]

Sorry to hear your weather wasn’t good. I was almost in sheer disbelief that it didn’t rain for us, I even got a bit sunburnt on my arms! We had our share of bad bikers too, we even had one chap try to pop a wheelie while in amongst the crowd, could’ve taken a bunch of people out if he’d gone down. Just confirmed that aside from this event, group rides are not for me.

Beautiful day - fantastic video - thanks!

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks Markie 🙏

[@richandrose6348]

Awesome! We honeymooned in London. Lots of locations on the route we visited too! But thank you for taking us along the route.

[@ClassicRides]

I hope it brought back some great memories for you 🙂

[@richandrose6348]

@@ClassicRides Certainly has! At about :53 my newlywed wife and I stood on the sidewalk to the left as the Queen came by for her annual presentation to Parliament! My wife was approximately to the side of the bloke to the far left, and I some steps to a bank (I think) a bit out of the photo to the left. Awesome ride. Congrats and much applause for the ride/cause.

[@benm1889]

Excellent video, the quality is so good! The weather couldn’t have been better 👌🏼

[@ClassicRides]

Couldn't have asked for a better day to do the ride 🌞

[@alanmorgan9353]

What a wonderful sight.

[@ClassicRides]

It really was!

[@paulclarke1233]

Hi classic rides, well done and all the fellow bikers on a most important cause and making it more well none

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks Paul, it was a great ride out for a great cause.

[@madvar]

Nicely captured. It was good to meet you in the car park before the ride.

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks, lovely to meet you too!

[@derniederrheiner4518]

Nice Vid. I like the idea behind DGR.. I also donate every year. But, although I have the right bike, I have to make do with the clothes.

[@TheMatlockBiker]

That looked a lot of fun, great day for it 😎

[@ClassicRides]

It was indeed, the Derbyshire ride looked good too. Hope you managed to get out and enjoy the sun this past weekend.

[@tennerear]

Exelente video y compaginacion,, el DGR, en Buenos Aires reunio cerca de 8000 motocicletas de todas las epocas !!

[@ClassicRides]

Wow, that’s a huge number of bikes, much have been quite a noise 😁

[@alessandroborelli]

ohhhh I didn't realises it was you mate at the end (I was the guy with the red suite :D ). Bummer I would have say hi..I love your channel!!

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks mate, maybe next time 😁

[@idrider4748]

Hi Matt it was great to chat to you, your videos have inspired me to make more videos on my channel, my GoPro that fell off my bike and bounces all over the road ended up ok and still films ! Amazing after all those bikes rode over it 😂 keep up the great work

[@ClassicRides]

Amazing it’s still working! Lovely to meet you too and yes, keeping making videos, looking forward to seeing what you get up to on your Bonnie 👊

[@lesperchard3793]

That was a stretch for the Bonnie’s legs Matt, glad the weather played ball for you, I was painting fence panels Ugh!

[@ClassicRides]

It’s one of the things I like about the T120, it can do long journeys if you want it too 🙂. Hope the weather stayed good for your fence painting Les, I’m sure the effort was worth it!

[@Disposalist]

I did the DGR in London a couple years back (vid on my channel *wink*). Makes for lovely footage, but you did an awesome job with it on top, as always! The traffic must have been a shock after your regular Peak District rides, though! Just finished editing the Colchester DGR run. I know it's a lot of work, but I'm always in awe of how slick and pro yours look. I've said it before and will say it again: Triumph should be using you for marketing!

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks, I’ll check out your DGR video when it’s ready. I rude through Manchester city centre fairly often so I’m used to bad traffic. London on a Sunday seemed very much like a busy weekday in Manchester.

[@apacherider7110]

Very cool and all for a good reason.

[@ClassicRides]

It is indeed 🙂

[@rramirrezz]

marvelous! :)

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks Onkel 🙏

[@schiffrinlalo154]

j'ai fait la DGR a Aix en Provence, France, avec ma Royal Enfield 500 Classic...✌

[@ClassicRides]

I hope you had great ride 👊

[@JiaoHuaZhi]

this is so cool😮

[@ClassicRides]

It was!

[@brykenarya6050]

Nice 😁👍

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks 🙏

[@juanito6147]

I love it

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks 🙏

[@TheBritishMotorbiker]

Looked like great fun. Is that Battersea Park at the end?

[@AlexOnABoat]

It was, yes.

[@ClassicRides]

It was and it was. Hope you had a great ride too Connor 👊

[@AlexOnABoat]

So that's what it looks like from in the middle, I've always wondered.

[@ClassicRides]

It’s lonely at the front Alex, next year you should drop back and hang out with us plebs in the throng 😁

[@AlexOnABoat]

And miss out on the limelight of riding at the front 😉

[@pabloordonez5332]

Finestkind...

[@ClassicRides]

I agree ☝️

[@IanClarke-bi3se]

Nice one matt how come you ended up on the London gig ?

[@ClassicRides]

Thanks Ian. Manchester Triumph haven't made any effort with the event for the last few years, so I thought I'd see how it's done in the Big Smoke. Thinking now I might do a different city each year now 😁

[@IanClarke-bi3se]

@@ClassicRides nice one looked really good well done Matt and thanks for the video

[@HuberHeinrichHuber]

Um was geht’s ?

[@ClassicRides]

You can find out here: www.gentlemansride.com 👍

[@mozdickson]

Nice. Lotta 'wrong' bikes though.... Looks very modern and commercial to 10 years back

[@ClassicRides]

I didn’t notice them to be honest. Not sure why you think it looks too commercial though 🤔

[@akhilshah-wtf]

I was looking for Freddie dobbs 😉

[@ClassicRides]

He was at a different one 🙂

[@barryfrancis7421]

I definitely wasn't.
