The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride comes to Terra Nova!

For Terra Nova's first time ever we hosted the DGR ride for Plymouth 2025. It exceeded our expectations; the sun was out, everyone bought their best fits and motors for the day, it was a morning to remember for sure.

We had local rider Kim lead the way in her Triumph Street Twin 900 while dressed in a fabulous red lewis leather suit.

"The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride is, without a doubt, my favourite motorcycling event of the year. It combines a huge passion for both vintage style and motorcycles. And, it does so all while supporting vital causes and bringing together a warm, likeminded community of bikers. Over the years, the ride has raised millions for men’s mental health and prostate cancer charities—an effort that makes every mile meaningful.

This year, I had the honour of leading the Plymouth ride. We couldn’t have asked for better weather - the sun shone down on us throughout. The enthusiasm and commitment of every one of the 70 participants did not go unnoticed, with an eclectic mix of bikes and equally creative outfits on display.

I’m truly grateful to Steve and the entire Terra Nova team for the opportunity to be involved. It was an unforgettable experience, and I’m proud to have played a part in such an important and growing movement.

I’m already looking forward to next year!"
