The Distinguished Gentleman’s Drive is a celebration of classic style.

It is an on-road motoring fundraising event, uniting classic cars built 40 years or older, encouraging drivers and passengers around the world to dress dapper and drive for men’s health.

All funds raised are invested in vital research and programs for prostate cancer and men’s mental health by Movember.

The 2024 event takes place on Sunday, September 29th.

I hope you sign up and drive around or just go and cheer on for others!

I went last year and it was amazing!

Of course it’s free to participate and watch.
