Charity motorcycle ride ranks second in world for donations
BBCA charity motorcycle ride where participants donned suits on vintage-style bikes has raised more than £100,000 for men's health causes.
Dorset's Distinguished Gentleman's Ride event last month ranked second among more than 1,000 rides held around the world, behind only New York.
The annual global fundraiser involved more than 120,000 riders across 109 countries and raised more than £5m for men's health charity Movember.
Locally, more than 1,000 riders and passengers took part in the event, which began at Poole Quay before travelling through Sandbanks, Westbourne, Bournemouth and Christchurch before finishing at the Sammy Miller Motorcycle Museum.


Crowds gathered along parts of the route to watch the procession of classic, vintage and custom motorcycles.
Organisers previously thanked riders, volunteers, marshals, photographers and spectators for helping make the event a success, describing it as a "fantastic day".
Founded in Sydney, Australia, the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride now takes place in more than 100 countries around the world.
Movember funds projects focused on men's mental health, suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer.
The charity has partnered with the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride since 2016.
