  10. Made the Mrs breakfast and casually started the ‘May buy another bike, thinking of the ST4S for sale I’ve seen locally’ chat….met with ‘you don’t ride the ones you’ve got’.

    Slowly slowly, catchy monkey….. means I’d have the magical trio: fast track road bike, fun cafe racer/monster, tourer for work and other haunts in years to come. And helps all be ducati and two very similar mechanically….

    Up on the roof terrace for drinks and a good chat with Lambchop rides, the YouTube vlogger and Emma Franklin of MCN.
    Neil Hodgson was the compère for the evening and he did a great job ..

    And also Paolo Ciabatti, ..trying to scrounge a ride on Pecco’s bike :D
    Great entertaining night and the charity raffle was something else , a Tee shirt signed by Pecco and Enea went for £500 :astonished: !!

    Stayed overnight at the Hilton hotel on the circuit and after breakfast we watched the free practice sessions for all groups, amazing, but the sound of the Ebikes was rubbish compared to the Moto GP bikes, absolutely glorious they were, great couple of days :upyeah:

  16. Yeah I had a similar chat with mine the other night, said I don’t want to get rid of the SF when the Monster comes. When I explained that by having money tied up in things, rather than in the bank, if I ever end up in a care home she can just sell them off the record.

  17. Sounds brilliant, how did you wangle that?
     
  18. Invite directly from Ducati, they sent me a customer survey to fill in recently and I think that must have generated the invite from them, if you don’t reply to their email invite asap you don’t get a place, sells out instantly :astonished:
