Alphamega is grand sponsor of Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride

Motorcycle enthusiasts from all over Cyprus will come together this May, to ride their bikes in a symbolic initiative aimed at raising public awareness about prostate cancer.

The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride Limassol will take place on Sunday, May 21, with Alphamega Hypermarkets as main sponsor. Biking enthusiasts will get to ride their favourite custom, vintage, neo retro and classic motorcycles around Limassol, joining the efforts of thousands of motorcycle riders in over 115 countries. The aim of the event is to raise funds and public awareness about prostate cancer and men’s mental health, as part of the Movember campaign.

This year, the ride will start from, and finish at, the Alphamega Hypermarket in Kapsalos, Limassol, beginning at 11am and ending around 12.30pm. Other than viewing the stunning bikes, attendees will also have an opportunity to enjoy great music, drinks and food at the Hypermarket’s parking lot.

Those wishing to participate as riders can register online, selecting Cyprus and Limassol in the location section. The cost to register is €10. Participants can also make a donation online, either anonymously or by name, by selecting one of the riders participating in the ride.

The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride is the world’s largest and most spectacular motorcycle charity event. It has been embraced by people all around the world as it unites classic, custom, vintage and new retro motorcycle riders for a very important cause: to support people facing a prostate cancer diagnosis.

The event was first held 10 years ago in Sydney, Australia with the aim of helping men live happier and healthier lives. Since then, it has been organised in over 900 cities worldwide, with the participation of around 120,000 riders. In Cyprus, the event has been held for the last eight years in Limassol, having raised over €36,000 to date.
