Portugal's Africa Twin Fans community held its second annual charity ride through the Douro region, drawing 93 bikes on the first day and 97 across both days. The event raised roughly €1,300 for a child in Vila Real who needs special care, following a route through local landmarks including São João da Pesqueira.

Picturing nearly a hundred Africa Twins winding through the Douro hills genuinely warms my chest. In a charity ride like this, it's not about luggage capacity or range, it's the time spent with fellow riders that takes center stage. Raising €1,300 matters more to me than the bike count did.

The Douro scenery with a bunch of Africa Twins, that's just a perfect picture.

Only about €1,300 raised feels a little low given how many bikes showed up.

I'd say the fact it's lasted two years running matters more than the amount.

With nearly 100 bikes riding together, I'm curious how they handle traffic control and safety.

I wish more charity rides like this would happen in Japan too.

If it's all Africa Twins, would a first-timer even feel out of place?
