Mark Hawaa is a classic car & motorcycle enthusiast. He’s also the founder of The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride - an annual event where motorcycle enthusiasts wear their finest attire and take to the streets of their city to raise money for worthwhile charities and to have a good time.

The event attracts 125,000 participants globally across 700 cities. To date they’ve raised over USD$35m for prostate cancer research and male suicide prevention. On this episode we hear how a once small idea has led to a change in perception of motorcycle culture globally. Mark shares the joys and challenges of philanthropy and let’s us in on what’s next on his horizon. This interview is inspiring on so many levels and a must listen.
