The Phoenix DGR Event was awesome. I was the guy with the red, silver and black 81 KZ750 LTD Cafe Racer. The ride was cool. The ride swept through Scottsdale around Papago Park and onto Tempe. Thanks for sharing the video and the great pics!

Doesn't look like there is an over abundance of Distinguished Gentlemen on Harley's in Florida ether.
The Lady in red high heels cracked me up, that looked dangerous.
Weather was unpredictable up here too, I'm glad you got the ride in, nice pic's B)

Thanks JD. It was very hot, but well worth it.

Here is a nicely done video by Dime City Cycles. I did manage to make it onto the video at the -2:06 (or 37 sec mark) mark and -1:55 (or 51 sec) mark. I'm the one with the action camera on the top of black helmet.

So the Distinguished Gentleman actually wear suits and ties? In the early 80's there was a club in SE PA that used to hold outlaw 1/8 mile dirt drags, Gentlemans M/C. I saw a lot of things at those races, but nothing that even remotely resembled a Gentleman. I stopped going when a rather burly unkempt Gentleman who identified himself as the club President informed me..."We don't pay prize money to no dam rice burners kid". i loaded up my bike and quietly accepted his ruling.
Thanks for sharing the pics. Those are some Gentleman I would enjoy hanging out with.

My buddy just sent me this from this years ride. This is inside at Dime City Cycles. Not my bike, I have no idea why we didn't take any individual pictures with our bikes. Seems to be the case on most events I go to. I take plenty of pictures of other bikes, but I forget about mine.
