oh, Ducati. The Streetfighter is soooo baddaasss! i drooled the entire day. still cant load attachments. i will link shots from my website when i finish Dreamweaving. I am pretty sure i picked the wrong time to go, when 7 thousand bikers rode from all over Europe to visit during the GRAN PREMIO D'ITALIA ALICE, many of those were also visiting the Ducati factory and museum like myself. Although my wife seemed glazed over and bored numb, every man, and one chick biker, each had drool puddles under them at each stopping point throughout the tour. There was a room full of Desmosedici's! Men in great amazement; a religious, quiet respect was observed in that room. In Bologna, I got onto a bus and paid the toll into the Ducati-branded fare-receptacle. I even took a photo of it. Interesting how the company started making engines, all because of a commi-bastard. Good for them?! [moto]
How many of y'all have been there? I am interested in taking some classes and moving to Italy, sounds like a decent gig. Think i gained a couple pounds in Bologna alone. Amazing bolognese sauce!

Can't wait to see the pics.
Oh, and FYI, this site doesn't do attached pics, only linked pictures.

red s4r '04. brought wife over to maurices' last year when we first moved up. moved party down the street, bunch of other duc fans brewing in garage, had camera, almost puked because beer is disgusting in that stage, wife will never return to that house now.
i forget why but a couple guys were taking turns swinging a large machete or axe at a tree in the back yard. that was amusing. i know you were there but i cant put the handles and real names together.
oh, i have over 1900 photos from the three week vacation. i just got back yesterday. i am working on it but it will not be done this week, i promise. sure a couple duc pics will be possible within a couple days.

OK. I did the Duc Show. It isnt art people, ill post my pretty pics when i have more time. It was a drool fest though! I didnt take pics of all the things the brothers created in electronics and so forth before communist Germany took over but you can probably find out with a couple searches. Genius brothers though! The wife loved the food and atmosphere of Bologna so even though she about knocked out at the factory she had a good time in the city.
