Think it’s via ducati.com. That’s where the email sent me to book when I clicked on the link

 

Booked, inters

Can’t make it. Working. Went last year, weather was glorious, had a great day. Met some old mates from Scotland.

I think McKenzie and a couple of his mates were there. I do remember a couple of heroes coming round the outside of me at Coppice…. The bubble bursting twats!! And there was me thinking I was ‘on it’

 

Hahaha that’s the best: you got head down and arse up and scaring yourself shitless at every turn because you on max grip and max lean…..and someone flies past under you 10m-h quicker, doesn’t run wide and just disappears. Wankers

 

I remember being on a track day at Silverstone I was (I thought flat out) and Taylor mcenzie came past me, I couldn't get anywhere near him, turns out he was only running his engine in on his bmw

 

ive just booked this , only advanced group left now, shame as @iamme was going to book the novice group too

 

There’s bound to be cancellations in all groups. Last year I got a spot no bother with only a week left to go. Weather forecast was glorious. If you want a slot, get on track day trader

 

tbh if you can ride inters your be ok in the fast group

 

Yeah Ducati day fast group isn’t as intense as a normal day fast group. You won’t have race clubs rocking up for a test/shakedown…

 

I was way out of my depth in the fast group on my Panigale V4 and I don’t consider myself a bad rider. Might have been the racers that turned up for the Ducati event got very impatient but I ended up asking to be moved to the inters. Andy

 

They have done at previous Ducati days, especially that event between the two lockdowns (or it might have been the first event after the second lockdown, I can’t remember). Ruined my day. Andy

 

if anyone hears of a cancellation, would appreciate a tag 

 

When I was on track I was super courteous!

 

And so you were but I wasn’t there in 2022 Andy

 

well at least that guarantees I didn’t upset you! Phew!

 

Oh, I’m pretty easy going and I like to see everyone enjoying themselves on a day like the Ducati days. Unfortunately not everyone has a similar outlook and sadly a very small number of entitled riders can’t give a toss. That said, I’m looking forward to Silverstone in June, it will be great to catch up with the usual suspects for a chin wag and fingers crossed the weather will be good …… for each of the 3 days. Lots of riders come from far and wide for a fun day and it’s a real shame when the weather lets you down. Andy

 

seems odd mate, im not fast but was quite capable of holding my own on the ducati day.

 

Puff…
