The Ride of the Ruperts (RotR) is the most prestigious of motorcycle rides in Sussex each May in aid of the Movember Foundation, a very worthy charity helping in the fight against prostate cancer and mental health issues.
It’s no secret that the RotR’s origins lay in the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride. A small regular group of chaps loved taking part so much that one of them decided to organise a small ride wherethey could dress dapper on their motorcycles and recreate the moment. Of course, that ride never actually happened, as the Ride of the Ruperts grew out of all intended proportions and became what it is today. 2018saw the inaugural event with 200 registered riders. A wonderful day washad by all and an incredible £5,588 was raised and donated through theWest Sussex DGR in support of not only the local ride, but the Movember Foundation too.
