Name: Larry Dotson

Location: Colorado Springs

Bike: 2004 Red 999 Superbike!  

Experience: I started riding on the street in 1980.  (Damn, that's a long time ago.)  Ben down twice once when I was 17 and once when 42.  Walked away both times, but my helmets didn't survive.  Ride the track on occasion and ride the long hauls with my wife on our BMW K1200GT.

Want to welcome all the SoCO DOGs  to our new crib and welcome all who share our affection for Ducs in particular.   be::  Hopefully, Anson and Ethan can keep us up and running and this site doesn't sell out.  So please share your info with us and join in the fun!  wt:

Cheers!   :wine

I'm not sure we might end up being of two homes. I saw you over in the Riders Lounge too. At this point I'd say keep an eye on both until things settle down and sort themselves out a little more.

Hi, I'm Gloria "bonfy" Waugh
I masquerade as WannaDucBad's mom.
I ride a 2008 695 Monster.  WDB is reviving my first Duc for his own first Duc.  Had a run-in last November with a cager.  I walked away, but the Dragon did not.  Can't wait to see it fly again.
I live in Albuquerque, but I am all over this board like a cheap suit of leathers because I make appearances in the Springs on a pretty regular basis, sometimes on the Monster.  I hope to meet your gang and do some riding soon.
I started riding in 1976, the same year as WDB was born.  Just off and on when I had a working bike.  Now I ride pretty much nonstop.  I plan to always have a Duc in the stable.

P.S.  Unable to post without pictures.

Present and accounted for.

Been riding for 2 months, outgrew my '06 Gixxer Six, now I'm ridin' wheelies on my '08 Busa!  Got me an iridium face shield, LED mirror blocker plates, and gun shaped foot pegs. Been down 13 times...


Glad to see everybody!

Marcel,

Next ride will be Sunday the 25th meeting at Montagues in Colorado Springs, if the pattern holds.  Send a PM to SoCo DOG Pres (Larry).  We'd love to have you.  I'm REALLY going to try to make the next one.

How long you've been riding: I started a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away...
Anything else you'd like to share: My Garage...Sean, tell Jack I'll let you guys park the 1098R here. That way it won't get fingerprints on it.

I thought the next ride was Sunday the 18th. Are you trying to come up with an excuse already Smitch?

Bwa-haha!  Jack says he'll trade you for the ZX-10, straight up!

Sunday the 18th ride?  That would be sweet, I was just following the "every other weekend" formula.  Can I bring my best buddy Joe?  He rides an RC-51.  It's kinda like a Ducati...

Well, I guess I'll just have to ride down there on the ZX10 and pick up my 1098R. Thanks for putting it in writing Smitch.   [moto]

Based on Sunday's ride [yesterday 18 May] I'm going to recommend that we allow associate members [non-Ducati riding folks] to ride with us.  Instead of DOGs we'll call 'em PUPs!!    ;D

Larry, do you still have that email list? I wonder if maybe we shouldn't send out another shout to everyone. Let them know we're still here. Let them know they should stop by and say hi. Check in once in awhile to see what's up.
