Laguna Secca MOTOGP!!!

[Desmostro]

Any one know about DUCATI island parking? Is it only a ticket now? Or can one still go to the DUCATI Dealer in Monterey and get a pass?

To answer my own question I called Monterey Duc dealer. They didn't get them last year so I guess you buy a package from DUCATI now:


Here are the package deals From DucatiUsa.com. It's actually $10. Cheaper buying through DUCATI and you get the Duc Island pass free. But you have to buy the package. That's cool. I can dig that.

Who's going? I'm in!

I might go, but I don't understand the allure with Duc Island.  It seems like it would take longer to get in for sure, and probably getting out takes longer too.  That and you have all the oil from greasy umbrella girls all over yer ride.

was that last sentence typed on purpose?

[sofadriver]

last year, if you got there early, you only had to show your bike's registration to park.

I totally want to go. The price is a bit steep, even through Ducati, but I think I might be able to afford one day. I live in Santa Cruz, so it is just about a 45 minute ride to Laguna Seca.

Besides the free oil from umbrella girls, free catered breakfast, free gear check, parking in the middle of the track where you can ogle the other Ducati, A shaded place to sit in a cafe setting mid track that would cost I don't know how many $ hundreds to get in any other spot like in the RedBull booths, Fun and games and family, what do you not get?

and why the #*+!¥<~# are you selling your 748/853?
Panigale?

I didn't know all the other free stuff came with the parking...although I'd pass on the fun and games and family--that's not my thing. 

Selling the 748 because it doesn't fit me quite like I'd like it to and I don't have the patience to tune it.  I ride so rarely at the track that I just want something reliable and turn-key right now.  It's a super-cool bike though.

It's a super-cool bike though. 

True that!

When I say "family" I mean Ducatisti.
 When I say fun and games I mean A row of DUCATI revving in symphonic harmony and other absurd motorcycle fun, shwag give-aways, n demo's of the latest gear. Every now and then DUCATI brings out a sneak peak at new bikes too! Last time I went Nicky Hayden introduced the new 848

I went about 3 or 4 years ago and I forgot about all that cool stuff. They had a mackin breakfast there that I wolfed down whilst talking with Duc Stew. I didn't get any oil on my bike from any umbrella girls though. She must be talkin about her other ride, Enzo.

Speaking about other rides I think Belle should get a turn key reliable BMW for her other bike.
