Well done to all that attended, our local council in the Vale of Glamorgan South Wales said we couldn't stop in the normal places unless we paid. Shame on them 😢
Hi Charlie, congratulations on the fund raising, your looking very confident riding those other bikes, the Harley sportster looked good, suites you nicely 👍
Waking up and watching this Charlie has made my day, thank you and congratulation on raising so much money for a good cause. Look forward to the next one 😁 xDx
Another excellent video. Well done for raising cash for such a worthwhile cause . I was out and about on the bike in The Peak District and saw lots of people going to the ride there. What a fabulous day for it. It’s an event that does a lot to raise peoples perception of motorcyclists . You are now my favourite TH-camr . Keep em coming and keep smiling 😀
Thank you Charlie for the great footage, and thank you for raising the most money in your chapter for mens health. Loved all the Bikes and the outfits were great.
Now Now Charlie No bright ideas about getting a Harley lol! Tho I thought the Royal Enfield GT Really suited you lol👍🏻 & again great choice of music too😎👏🏻👏🏻
Really nice video and looks like a good route. We were on the Poole-Bournemouth ride. What a day we all had, loved it and very much looking forward to next year 😎 (more tweed).
Absolutely sorry to miss that event this year. It could have been my second time participating. And another reason to be upset: i was in the French Riviera and the weather was awfull, meanwhile it was really sunny at home for the DGR tour... I promise not booking the date for 2024, i'll be there ! Congratulations for your donation ! ✌from Burgundy
Don't usually make a comment but watch all your Videos, I thought the DGR video was really great, your best to date, and well done on the Money raised, brilliant, best wishes, Colin.
Well done Charlie that was one of your best video's to date , i really love that idea of Charlie on a Harley tbh , so take care & ride safe sweetheart looking forward to your next adventure
Hello 😃 Distinguished Gentleman's Ride was held in Kobe and Yokohama on May 21st in Japan. I ride a Royal Enfield Classic 350, and through that connection I learned about the existence of DGR for the first time this year. I think it's a great event. It looks like you guys are having a lot of fun too.
Hi Charley, my wife says you looked great on the Harley Sportster, we have thought you should have one ages ago. Low seat height good power and pull more than your Himalayan but not overwhelming, brilliantly customisable, Louise started as a nearly new 883cc but she got board in days with the lack of power so she had a 1200cc cylinder kit fitted. Different handlebars, sissy bar rack other stuff all her own work! I have a 1800cc Fat Bob CVO and we love riding together. Our lifes ambition is to Ride to Gran Canaria on the bikes camping on the way down then getting accommodation there. We love your channel very real and straight from a new rider point of view learning as you go,, all the best Phil and Louise
Great turn up for a great event, and quiet a nice sum you collected. With your channel you definetly make a good impact on people. Well done Charlie. Grts Danny
Great stuff Charlie, you were all looking very dapper and all for such a great cause and what a fantastic turnout👍What an incredible total so far👌Loved your choices of music, they were really in the spirit of the ride and you even got great weather😁
Hi Charlie, my hubby sent you a comment last week to tell you I thought you looked great on the Harley. I'm a little shorter and older than you and think a Harley Sportster would really suit you. I've had mine a couple of years now and have customised it along the way. It's low seat height and low center of gravity makes it perfect. It's torque is magnificent but not so fast that it rips your arms off. I never used to be a Harley fan but I've fallen in love with mine. Got a sissy bar and rack so loads of options for stowing your tent n sleeping bag. Maybe see if Harley would loan you one for a weekend. Think you'd be convinced! Love your videos and great to see a lady getting out there in a predominantly male activity. Hats off to you! All the best Louise and Phil From Lincolnshire.
Bravo!!! P.s I was in a car sadly that day but kept on seeing bikers as was nearby driving home thinking wtf! Wanted to race home and get on the bike...
Those Harley’s really suited you, as most bikes do. A great cause. No one seems to say exactly how the money helps. Looks like the weather was kind too.
Well done on raising the cash charlie,great video,great choice of music for it,and some very strange camera angles..I need to look into one of those 360 gizmos.
Great day for you Charlie, loved it. I lost my dad to prostate cancer( 67 yrs only) I have Complex ptsd. Nice to see you addressed men’s mental health too…much love and a hug….Cam 💐xx
Thank you, Charlie, for supporting such a worthwhile cause. Congratulations on your award. What an absolute dapper collection of enthusiasts. Swell motorcycle tent and helmet. Nice to see Roger got a break on holiday. Cheers!
This is brilliant I love the concept of distinguished rides but iv noticed nearly all sacrifice safety protection for style with the open half helmet buckets.
Back in the day we never had any armour just better quality leathers ,strengthened in vulnerable places ,proper full length boots & motorcycle gauntlets . This new fancy modern armoured gear ,is restrictive especially when attempting to preform rear observations & life savers . If people are worried about risking injury whist riding motorcycles ,they are better sticking to driving granny cages . Cyclists can reach speeds over 60 mph down hill & they are only protected by Lycra & flimsy cycle helmets & shoes .
@@restdayrider I reckon it’s no more riskier than a Lycra clad cyclist . When I was younger in the 1970 ‘s I used to ride to my girlfriends in my going out clobber & even suits on my motorcycle & leave it at her house ,then take her out by taxi . If it was good enough for James Bond it was good enough for me . Well done by the way 👍
Some fab film work there Charlie, those insta 360's are very impressive. Once again very well done for all the money you have collected and you looked lovely
Hi Charlie. I always like your videos but the shots with fisheye view with the 360 camera not so much. It is nice seeing so many riders joining the DGR ! Stay safe and make many more videos !
I think I see a Harley on your horizon, I’ve got my name down for one but the owner told me, never in my life time, last time I saw him he still looked pretty healthy so I guess I will have a long wait.
Slight aside (gear related): in the Charlie on a Harley segment, are those Oxford Leggings you are wearing? And if so which type & what you think of them? ( cos I am tempted by the OA ones but the older ones can be had cheap & I won't cry as much if they don't wash as well!)
I bet you had an awesome day, you looked amazing, well done on raising funds for such a good cause. Fantastic video! How was the continental gt to ride? Its on my list😂. X
Hi, it was a lovely day. The GT was one I've been avoiding riding due to the cafe racer style lean, and I'm not sure how my wrists and back would enjoy it longer term, but it was fun . 😊
Wow! The weather was there for this. So cool to see everybody dressed up! Actually, that's how I thought English man dressed... 🤔 Just kidding😅 I love your retro helmet with the goggles! Congrats on the most raised $$!!! That's awesome!
They do all dress like that Judith, it's just they wait for an event like a wedding etc to show us they can look dapper and handsome. The rest of the time it's joggers and a grubby T shirt. 😂
Firstly you are suppose to go IN the tent not UNDER it, secondly some of that overhead footage really did my head in, it look like you were constantly aiming to ride of the road. Thirdly what did you think of the sporters. Fourthly what a great day for a ride
Your pants can not be that long - or can they. Really well done on raising the most coin for an important cause - I quite like my prostate :-) keep the content coming !
Well done Charles...(distinguished gentleman)🫢 .you do look awesome on that Harley it really suited you (suits you sir suits you! )😜 sorry I can't help myself today 🙊. In all seriousness the camera angles and quality was top shelf stuff ,and the jazz style James bond music was perfect . We'll done on your amazing fundraising 🤗👍....Harry
Greetings fron down under. Congratulations...and a good day was had by all... all around the world. Thankyou.
Amazing video Charlie, well done you, thanks for sharing! 👍👍
Thank you 😊
Congrats Charley on attending and attaining top fund raiser
Thank you 😊
Well done to all that attended, our local council in the Vale of Glamorgan South Wales said we couldn't stop in the normal places unless we paid. Shame on them 😢
That's a real shame. 😔
Should have paid and asked them to donate the takings - yeah right they sound like they wanted to help NOT
Also living here in the VOG,..... its an utter disgrace, but then nothing surprises with the shower running the show.....
Well done you . On the fund raising and another great video 👍👏👏
Thanks 😊
Very nice. I've been riding so much I can't make videos let alone watch videos. Thank you.
Well done brilliant video and well done on the fund raising

Thank you Louise! I'd love to see a pic of the Harley if you're on Instagram could you send me a pic ( Rest Day Rider) 😊
I will send you some pics if I can figure out how!
we at West Sussex did Shoreham to Chichester with 2 stops,didn't get past 3rd gear ! over 250 riders but raised over £36000 ! love the music
Thank you 😊
Bravo!!!
P.s I was in a car sadly that day but kept on seeing bikers as was nearby driving home thinking wtf! Wanted to race home and get on the bike...

Hi Volt, I will do a follow up when the donations close . 😊
Well done on raising the cash charlie,great video,great choice of music for it,and some very strange camera angles..I need to look into one of those 360 gizmos.
Thank you. 😊
@@restdayrider next decision to be made is interceptor or super meteor??
Great day for you Charlie, loved it. I lost my dad to prostate cancer( 67 yrs only) I have Complex ptsd. Nice to see you addressed men’s mental health too…much love and a hug….Cam 💐xx
Thank you as always Cam. X
Thank you, Charlie, for supporting such a worthwhile cause. Congratulations on your award.
What an absolute dapper collection of enthusiasts. Swell motorcycle tent and helmet. Nice to see Roger got a break on holiday. Cheers!
Thank you 😊
Great video! Looks like you had a fab day out. Weather was brilliant. Well done on the fundraising. You're an inspiration to all Charlie!
Thank you 😊
Well done for your fundraising efforts! Looks like you had a great day.
It was fabulous 😍
Great video. Loved the split screen 360 camera. We have this locally in Ohio. I must look into it. Keep up the great work
Thank you 😊
Very good job on your fund raising! Proving that nothing you can’t do. Charlie on a Harley, next purchase?
It was rather nice. 😊

It's a choice a lot make for the day, balanced with the slow pace and short ride time. I know that's not the answer, but it is a considered choice. 😊

Well done Charlie and congratulations on winning the prize , looked a great ride out from Cirencester, looking forward to riding in the 2024 DGR , 👍
It was a great day. 😊
Super effort on fund raising Charlie, great vid also, your editing skills have come along way, Hollywood beckons?.. Happy riding, stay safe!
Hahahhaa I think I'll keep the day job for now. 😊
That Harley suited you best
Seems to be the consensus of opinion! 😊
Great video. Can you tell me what the music is called at 12.45?
It's from an app called Artlist, I'll see if I can find the track.
@@restdayrider That would be great. Thanks.
The Jazz gets a 10/10 😊 Weldone on raising so much money, it's a great cause.
Thank you 😊
A another enjoyable vlog for a worthy cause and by the way you looked beautiful in your dress❤
Thank you 😊
Hi Charlie. I always like your videos but the shots with fisheye view with the 360 camera not so much.

Sorry you didn't enjoy the 360 footage, I was limited on cameras this time as I didn't have a helmet cam.

They are! And I picked them up in the sale as an older model, paid £10 if I remember correctly! 😊
@@restdayrider Oh lordy I haven't seen them priced that well 😸 I will keep an eye out for some then 👍
i am doing the glasgow ride on sunday 28th yeah i know it should have been 21st however its not
You like to do things in a unique way up noooorf. 😏
@@restdayrider oh aye, us scots are definitely "unique"
lol

Hi, it was a lovely day. The GT was one I've been avoiding riding due to the cafe racer style lean, and I'm not sure how my wrists and back would enjoy it longer term, but it was fun . 😊
So how much did you raise Charlie ? I must say I'm slightly dissapointed you didn't use the B31 !
AHH news on that puppy coming VERY soon. 😊 My total was £1671. 😊
Wow! The weather was there for this. So cool to see everybody dressed up! Actually, that's how I thought English man dressed... 🤔 Just kidding😅
I love your retro helmet with the goggles!

When you getting a Harley then Charlie ? Suits you 👍
Thank you 😊
Well you certainly scrub up well
Thank you! 😊
Firstly you are suppose to go IN the tent not UNDER it, secondly some of that overhead footage really did my head in, it look like you were constantly aiming to ride of the road. Thirdly what did you think of the sporters. Fourthly what a great day for a ride
Hi! Ah well you live and learn with the tent position. 😏 I did like the Harley 883 Sportster, good riding position. 😊
These rides need a name change.
I'm happy to be an honorary Gentleman for the day. 😊
Charlie your best yet, great to see the meteor getting some exercise!!!! well done on the money laundering----- raising!😊
Haha thank you 😁
Your pants can not be that long - or can they. Really well done on raising the most coin for an important cause - I quite like my prostate :-) keep the content coming !

Nice video apart from the pointless music !. Why ?.
Because wind noise buffeting the mic is like slow torture, and I didn't have a mic in my helmet this time. 😊
Well done Charles...(distinguished gentleman)🫢 .you do look awesome on that Harley it really suited you (suits you sir suits you! )😜 sorry I can't help myself today 🙊.
