The discussion on the main board induced me to take a look; lo and behold, the Duc Truck will be in Phoenix July 4-6 at the Ducati Superstore.

Man, Phoenix in July for demo rides... they need to make sure they know about the weather channel... even though it will be hot I will plan on being there early morning.

That was my partner's response -- "Honey, that's Phoenix, July, leathers... No thanks. Good thing I'm a girl and can ride all those bikes at Femmoto in the Fall."  :-\

Femmoto is in Vegas. Even in the fall, it's still pretty hot. Not July in Phx hot, but hot nonetheless...

I'll be there... I still have a smile on my face thinking of the demo I did on a Hypermotard S @ AZSBK... I want to get on one again!!! An 848 would be a nice ride for a comparison to my 675...

Planning on being there, probably Sunday.  Do they sell shorts with knee sliders?  ;D

I am in the process of laying tile in my whole house... those newer knee pads seem pretty strong/comfortable...  [laugh]

David and I might attend.  I really would like to check out and ride an 848.  [moto]  Anyone want to buy a slightly used Triumph?

+11ty-billion.

Could always trade the Triumph in on a new Duc!?!  (I know, I'm a bad influence [evil] )

I think maybe I will be showing up at 9:00am to this little event on Saturday. MAybe after a little south mountain jaunt. Don't know if I will do a test ride but I will definitely grab an espresso and hang out for a bit.

I can't do it Saturday (or Sunday), but I'm planning on about 9am-ish Friday the 4th.
Without stereotypes, there would be chaos.

Went to the shop at 9 am sharp.  Got to ride a Monster 696 and an 848! Woot!  [thumbsup]
If you're planning on going, get signed up early as the spots and bike choices filled up fast.
