Title: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: okpanic on February 28, 2011, 11:02:25 AM So I know that there are usually viewing parties for the Moto GP races, I was just wondering where they are going to be for the first race of the year.
Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: erkishhorde on February 28, 2011, 02:07:30 PM One of the shops in the OC is hosting one at Costa Mesa Hooters. I'll update with more info when I can find the thread.

Post by: Privateer on March 01, 2011, 06:20:00 AM dainese store in costa mesa? newport? usually hosts also. sometimes ducati newport beach. sometimes Brea Ducati. Pro Italia.
I'm going to see if my local bikini bar will play it from Speed (if it comes on at a reasonable time). Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: orangelion03 on March 01, 2011, 06:54:34 AM I'll be watching it on my computer at home.

I'm not 100% on that yet Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: okpanic on March 03, 2011, 02:57:13 PM that is what i'm looking for, without actually saying it......indy

Post by: Scotzman on March 03, 2011, 08:12:20 PM There *might* be a viewing party put together by SoCAL DMC and OCDC.... same place we've had the Indy viewing party.... This is my plan if it happens. On a scale of 1-10, how was the Indy viewing thingy? That'll be a factor too.I'm not 100% on that yet Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: lawbreaker on March 07, 2011, 03:56:45 PM Its the same feed as SPEEDTV.. just at the Big Office so its in the theater with tons of seats)... plenty of drinks to be had for gratis (courtesy of the host), one year we bought a bunch of pizzza's, last year we all went out to grub after. It's a fun g2g and you get to meet peeps from OCDC ans SoCAL DMC ( if you havent already met some/most of 'em).
Plus theres the game room and other kewl crap to check out inside the place... Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: silvy1200 on March 07, 2011, 07:44:50 PM I heard a few DOC's were invited to the Red Bull HQ in Santa Monica
Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: lawbreaker on March 09, 2011, 08:56:56 AM I heard a few DOC's were invited to the Red Bull HQ in Santa Monica .. a tad late to the converssation i see [cheeky] That's what i was talking about ( just like Indy viewing party the last few years).. I'm not sure if it's a 100% go yet ( Ryan may/may not be back in time) so i didn't want people rolling in for a no-go. As soon as I hear i'll post up. the DOC's = SoCal DMC and OCDC Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: Privateer on March 09, 2011, 09:53:32 PM I've heard nothing from OCDC, but I don't hear much from them lately as it is.

Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: Scotzman on March 10, 2011, 10:37:49 PM So is it by invitation only? I haven't got a response from DOCSD. They sent an email out a couple of weeks ago.Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: Privateer on March 10, 2011, 11:22:08 PM well speak of the devil... got the email tonight
Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: erkishhorde on March 11, 2011, 10:09:32 AM They sent an email out a couple of weeks ago. Aw, I guess I'm not in the cool kid's club. :'( Does that mean I don't get to go? Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: silvy1200 on March 11, 2011, 01:14:15 PM i haven't received anything [thumbsdown]
Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: lawbreaker on March 11, 2011, 01:47:37 PM Which DOC are you guys members of ?
Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: silvy1200 on March 11, 2011, 02:01:37 PM DOC San Diego mostly.
But I was on the mailing list with Socal DMC Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: erkishhorde on March 11, 2011, 02:31:02 PM I didn't sign up for anything so I'd say none. :( I just plain own a duc. I'm on the SocalDMC forums but that's it besides here.
Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: silvy1200 on March 11, 2011, 02:34:23 PM well speak of the devil... got the email tonight So was it an official invitation? Something you have to RSVP to? Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: lawbreaker on March 11, 2011, 02:44:26 PM Naw man.... C'mon down [thumbsup]
I txted the Cap'n a few days ago and he said we're good to go. So I posted a thread on the SoCal DMC in the hopes that *others* would not only see it but someone might send out an email.... Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: silvy1200 on March 11, 2011, 03:17:14 PM perfect! thanks! a few of us san diego folks will be riding up!
Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: lawbreaker on March 11, 2011, 05:28:12 PM SWEET [thumbsup]
Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: Privateer on March 11, 2011, 07:09:20 PM My email said this:
IMPORTANT NOTES: 1. This special event is by INVITATION ONLY. Please do not share, forward, or re-post details of this special event on public forums and/or websites. Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: erkishhorde on March 12, 2011, 12:22:37 AM My email said this: IMPORTANT NOTES: 1. This special event is by INVITATION ONLY. Please do not share, forward, or re-post details of this special event on public forums and/or websites. :-\ Are you supposed to print the email and bring it with you or what? I don't even know exactly where it is. Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: lawbreaker on March 12, 2011, 09:58:37 AM If you're a club member and your club got an invite (but you specifically have not gotten it yet). I'd say its o.k if you show up.
If you're not a member of an invited club.... and : show up on a non italian ride... have a mohawk on your helmet.... or spikes on your Icon vest.... or show up in your CAR.... It might not be a good idea to show up. The last thing anyone wants is to ruin -for whatever reason- the relationship the clubs have with the most gracious host and get banned from having any future event(s) there. Having said that there are obvious perks (if you wanna call it that) to being a club member.. Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: erkishhorde on March 12, 2011, 10:40:57 AM SocalDMC counts as a club, right?
edit: Ah, I just checked PMs from my Socal DMC account and see that the event from August was for members with supporter status. I think it's about time I pm'd Luca. :P Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: silvy1200 on March 15, 2011, 01:55:59 PM I know most of you are already in LA, but were you guys going to meet up somewhere then head to Red Bull HQ? I plan on riding up from San Diego, hopefully with a few other riders.

I plan on riding up from San Diego, hopefully with a few other riders. Could probably meet OCDC in Long Beach on your way up. Lemme know if you want the address. Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th.

I plan on riding up from San Diego, hopefully with a few other riders. The Socal DMC invite (which has already gone out) mentions a group ride -which is optional- to HQ.... OCDC usually does the same. Check your flyer/invite from your club Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: Privateer on March 19, 2011, 08:10:41 PM erkish and I are going to meet and go straight to the Red Bull office. Weather says something like 80% chance of rain by noon and I really really don't want to be subjected to that on my bike.
Skipping the long beach meet spot, but we'll see the OCDC folks at Red BUll HQ. Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: Privateer on March 20, 2011, 02:36:48 PM OCDC and SoCal DMC got invited to watch the opening race at the Red Bull HQ in Santa Monica. Erkishorde and I drove out there in the rain. Here are a few pictures.
First thing we see: (http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/1854/rebullmotogp020.jpg) Then we see this (http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/3566/rebullmotogp018.jpg) There's all this cool art all over the place and random motorsport memorabilia in people's desks (http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/9431/rebullmotogp017.jpg) (http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/9431/rebullmotogp017.jpg) (http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/1408/rebullmotogp010.jpg) (http://img806.imageshack.us/img806/121/rebullmotogp011.jpg) (http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/8139/rebullmotogp012.jpg) (http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/9115/rebullmotogp014.jpg) (http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/2263/rebullmotogp015.jpg) This is their break area (http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/3995/rebullmotogp006.jpg) (http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/3966/rebullmotogp004.jpg) Then we see this: (http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/2231/rebullmotogp003.jpg) (http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/4122/rebullmotogp002.jpg) And they have fooseball and ping pong (http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/1859/rebullmotogp009.jpg) And the office movie theater (http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/7375/rebullmotogp001.jpg) Time for the show! (http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/2931/rebullmotogp016.jpg) Thank you Red Bull! I totally want to work there now. Too bad it's all the way in Santa Monica. Title: Re: Moto GP on March 20th. Post by: erkishhorde on March 20, 2011, 08:22:15 PM Yup yup, many thanks. Fun times and I got to try Red Bull for the first time.
