Ducati Monster Forum

Ciao a tutti -

The reason for getting these events started was to provide a fun, social atmosphere for Ducati owners, folks that want to become Ducati owners, and folks that don't yet know that they want to become Ducati owners, to sit, eat, talk, walk around and look at other Ducatis. All brands and models of motorcycles are welcome, so please don't be put off by the event name ;-)

John (johnc) will be your host ... and if he is not in town, look for Kirk hayes or Matt Farnetti or Johnny Crash ... the usual suspects;-).

Please come and join us from 6:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on the second Monday of each month.

A presto,

I'll be there, but likely without the bike unless the warranty work comes back quickly. 

hope you have your bike back ... what is the dealership doing?

Trying to find a mythical oil leak.  I haven't taken it in yet.  I've heard so many bad things about the local dealers that I'm tempted to wait until the 7500 mile service and have Nichols try to find it. 

ah ... the mythical oil leak.

if you don't take it in before monday, clean off the oil before you ride down, then we can take a look-see at the oil trails, and try and determine what is leaking.  note: important that you clean off all previous oil traces, so when you ride, the new traces will leave a fresh trail we can follow to its source (hopefully).

a presto,
johnc

i will most likely bring a stack o' bridgestone tee shirts tomorrow evening to bike night, to hand out as door prizes.

a presto,
johnc

I'm in.

Free t-shirts eh?

si ... and we might even have some extra-extra small sizes just for you.  [roll]

ill be there

this sounds fun!  i've been busy for several of these since i got my M695 a few months ago, but i think i should be able to make it tonight.     

Cool come find us well save a seat for you.

Wear something pink so we can spot you  :P

since dan was the only one wearing pink (a quite fetching dress, with a pearl necklace) ... we don't know if you actually showed up.

a presto,
johnc

good times...i think the blonde doing laps by our table wanted some of sid's lovin'. [drink]

by the way, that's hot chocolate i'm drinking (and it's damn good).

what blonde?  the milf?  [roll]

looks like i got there a bit late, i showed up around 7:30, just minutes before the majority of the group left.  I ended up talking with a British guy for a while before heading home.  it looked like a fun group, though!  i'll make sure to get there earlier next month.

7:30?  the majority of the group stayed until at least 8:30 ... was a little too cold for most, so the ones that rode, headed out then.

glad you could attend, and look forward to seeing you at future bike nights.  when the weather warms up a bit, we get a much bigger crowd and lots more bikes.

a presto,
johnc
