2. The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride | 24th September 2017

   Posted on 2:00pm Friday 4th Aug 2017

   

   For one day a year, however, thousands of Distinguished Gentleman (and genteel ladyfolk) in hundreds of cities worldwide press their cravats, starch their tweed and sit astride their classic-styled motorcycles to raise funds for prostate cancer research and awareness. 

   It’s a day all about spreading merriment, while raising awareness of a really important issue, that affects 1 in 8 blokes across the world. The fundraising supports research into Men's Health by bringing together dapper riders of classic machines, cafe racers, bobbers, custom motorcycles, trackers and undefinable two-wheeled creations.

   The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride is a celebration of the art of being dapper and the style of classic custom motorcycles. What does that mean, you ask? Think: Monocles, jaunty trimmed moustaches, silk vests, crisp shirts and tailored suits. Ride: Café Racers, Bobbers, Flat Trackers, Scramblers and quirky, undefinable two-wheeled machines. The styles of bike should be reflective of classic motorcycle nature. Think 1970's and the decades before them. Do: Bring your finest manners, neatest beards and a sense of fun and adventure.

   Pay: Nothing to ride (entry is free); but please consider helping our charities by getting your friends and family to sponsor your involvement. Or buy a patch, cap or tshirt. Every little bit helps. Dapper for a Cause: Where we’ve come from and where we’re headed. 
   
   In 2014, there was 20,000 smartly-dressed gentlefolk in 258 cities across 57 countries. 
   
   In 2016, there was more than 56,000 dapper riders in over 500 cities across 90 countries, that united for the world’s largest motorcycling charity event upon their classic & vintage styled motorcycles, in the name of men’s health. 

   venue: Thousands of riders in 500+ cities across the globe will ‘join the gentry’ on a ride to raise money for the Prostrate Cancer Foundation. Please note below are UK and Ireland events. Lots more listed on the website and facebook.

4. Yorkshire Pudding 2017 - Sold Out

   Posted on 8:00pm Monday 31st Jul 2017

   Well, Farmyard Party was a blast and we certainly haven't seen the Main Stage that wild for a while. With an early start on Friday, the party kicked off to what was to be a very hot weekend - literally - and what can I say about the Sex Pissed Dolls and AC/DC UK?
   

   They put on an absolutely brilliant show to say the least. And, of course, The Purple Helmets and Smacked Arse Comedy Show kept us giggling and entertained throughout the rally. We hope our improvements to this year's entertainment have been worthwhile for you - even if you did have to pay a tad more.

   So, to the final act - Yorkshire Pudding - which has sold out once again!
   

   So if you've booked a ticket for this rally, this is what you should expect to see. This year's headline bands include Angel Fire - one of our favourites that we haven't seen for a couple of years - and Storm, which we guarantee will rock the house down. Mr David Williams will be headlining The Smacked Arse Comedy show on Saturday afternoon. And to get you on your merry way, we will be serving the usual plethora of fantastic real ales and acoustic sounds during Friday and Saturday afternoons. Full details of all Yorkshire Pudding entertainment below for your perusal.

   Yorkshire Pudding is a pre-book ticket rally only. So, if you haven't got one then tough luck - you'll have to be quicker next year!.
