And by the way, if you live in California and have not been to the May Quail Motorcycle Gathering, you owe it to yourself to go, at least once. Ther entry fee is generally around $100, with food and GREAT ice cream form MaryAnnes, included, along with “gear check” at entry. The bikes on display are incredible! But wait…you don't have a spare $100? No worries. Go anyway! The “parking lot” is often more exciting than the fairway display! This year’s 20th Quail Motorsport Gathering (the cars) had 3 Bugatti’s on display..including the 1 of a kind Mistral. BUT…in the “parking lot”, I saw no less than 3 Chiron, Veyron and a Sport…just parked out there. It’s an incredible, even grandiose display of performance, moto-history and of course dollars/Euros. I love it so much, I got involved with the setup of the shows! Although I missed attending the last 2 May events, for reasons. Entry into the Aug event aint cheap at $1200, however, and it’s granted by a lottery system, starting in Feb, I believe. For Ducati content, I offer this: At last year’s Aug event, a Paul Smart backup bike was on display and won an award as well. https://z-upload.facebook.com/motoborgotaro/posts/2391623171005749 And Vicki is frequently a judge at the May event. > On Aug 28, 2023, at 3:30 AM, ducati-request@list.ducati.net wrote: > > 4.
