[Ducati] New to list (Tony)

[TONYG656 at aol.com]

Hey Andy,
 
It is good to be a part of the Ducati family.  The 999 is my first and  
hopefully not my last Ducati.  I've owned Hondas, a Harley and a Moto Guzzi  in the 
past, but it's been a while.  When I rode the Ducati for the first  time I 
had to take a breath and collect myself for a moment; it had been nearly  20 
years since my last road bike and never anything like this.  WOW!   What a 
machine!  After a few hundred miles under my tires those old  feelings of being one 
with your machine have come back though and in many ways I  feel like I was 
never off two wheels.  All of this though is taken with a  healthy respect for 
the ponies I now sit on, and besides... I have dreamed of  owning a Ducati for 
years and the last thing I want to do is bust it up by doing  something really 
stupid.... not to mention my wife would kill me!
 
I live in Northern Virginia so Laguna next year may be a little tough but I  
plan on getting to as many Ducati events as my time and budget will allow.
 
Thanks for the welcome and see you down the road.
 
 
Tony
