Gloucester's Distinguished Gentleman's Ride is open to anyone who wishes to spruce up and go for a tour of the area.
The annual ride combines the desire for dressing dapper and the love of classic custom motorcycles, while raising awareness and funds for prostate cancer research and male suicide prevention programs.
Gloucester held its first ride on September 30 last year, and based on its success, there is another planned for Sunday, September 29 this year.
According to event organiser, Helen Shearer there were 54 registered riders and about 40 bikes at last year's event, with riders coming from as far as Queensland, Newcastle and Sydney.
"Part of the insurance requirements and risk minimisation is that the ride route and details are only available to organisers and those who register," Helen explained.
"However, I can say that this year's run will again showcase the glorious Gloucester countryside and a route designed to allow more spectators to catch a glimpse of the fabulous bikes and stylish riders."
Registrations open on Thursday, August 1. To register to take part in the ride, or donate to the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride men's health cause, you can do so via the website, www.gentlemansride.com/rides/australia/gloucester
All riders must have legally registered motorcycles including the minimum insurances and wear all legally required protective gear.
The ride, which began in Australia in 2012, is a niche charity event held, at last count, in 581 cities across 92 countries worldwide.
Riders, both ladies and gentlemen, can be seen all dressed and riding in classics like a Cafe Racer, Bobber, Classic, Tracker, Scrambler, Old School Chopper, Modern Classic, Sidecar, Classic Scooter or Brat Styled motorcycle.
