The 2008 Ducati show and shine is on the 21st september in Redcliffe, maybe that could be a start or a finish.

OK, keen but will only be in Brissy on the 13 & 14 Sep and 4 - 6 Oct 08.

Unfortunately also will only have access to a TRX850, which is close to a Duc, but no cigar  :)

Sort of, maybe it's closer to an old Duc than we think.

Every ride I've been on something went wrong.

Day 1 -  I went to put some air in the tyres (owner must think that's not necessary) and one of the valves snapped.

On the second ride the LH mirror fell off - cat like reflexes saved the day as I grabbed it before it hit the ground - wondering what'll happen next?

But I won't be deterred. Seems to have plenty of torque but the gearing is a little high (long) which dulls the experience a bit.

At the very least we could meet up for a coffee @ Glorious on a weekend I'm home.
