A ONE-of-a-kind motorcycle built especially for the 2018 Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride rolled into Glasgow yesterday.
The custom bike is based on Triumph’s iconic Bonneville T100 and sports burnt orange custom paintwork – and even a Harris Tweed Hebrides seat.
It is currently being toured 574 miles from Harris to Hinkley – in Leicestershire – where the two famous brands were born.
The bike will be ridden in the Distinguished Gentlemen’s Ride – which raises awareness of men’s health issues – by cancer survivor Phil Green.
He said: “I can’t wait to get back on the bike.”
