Dubai’s streets came alive with vintage charm and purpose on May 18 as the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride (DGR) Arabia 2025 saw over 300 classic motorcycle enthusiasts unite for a stylish ride in support of men’s health. The event, organized by the Piston Kings Motorcycle Community, raised awareness for mental health and prostate cancer under the global Movember Foundation banner.
Riders, both men and women, dressed in sharp, dapper attire, cruised through the heart of Dubai on custom, modern classic, and retro bikes, turning the city into a rolling fashion show with motorcycles. With Dubai Police and Emirates Motorsports Organization (EMSO) providing official escort, the ride was both safe and spectacular.
The event drew thousands of spectators, with the city’s iconic skyline adding glamour to the cause. DGR Arabia continues to grow with Dubai once again taking the lead as the flagship city in the Middle East for this worldwide movement, now spanning over 100 countries.
“This isn’t just about motorcycles – it’s a ride for awareness, solidarity, and style,” said Khan FM, host and lead rider of DGR Arabia.
Supported by Breitling Middle East, GoPro, Triumph UAE, and endorsed by key government bodies like Dubai Health Authority, Dubai Sports Council, and the Ministry of Sports Dubai, DGR Arabia 2025 was more than just a ride – it was a statement.
As the UAE’s passion for purpose-driven motorcycling rises, the ride is set to expand across more cities in the region in the coming years.
