Distinguished Gentlemen's Ride 2023 Photos


The Distinguished Gentlemen's charity ride was held around the world on Sunday 21st May 2023. There was a ride in Perth from Wireless Hill in Applecross and members of my club, the KBG, decided to attend. Here are a few photos from our pre-ride coffee meet.

A stunning BMW with original German Steib sidecar.

The IWL is a beautiful machine. Behind is a Jawa 350 from Czechoslovakia

Jawas were a popular export around the world. 

IWL Berlin. This is the predecessor model to my IWL Troll. It is powered by the same 149cc MZ motorcycle engine.

I opted to drink my coffee and bid the team adieu.

And out on the road. Peter on his BMW
