Question WDW2014 - Organising the Trip!

After a discussion in the pub at the DSC Essex meet last night, it's clear that there are quite a few people that want to attend WDW this year and are looking at the different ways of getting there.

As a club we can offer you discount on tickets (more details soon) and also access to the hotel discount scheme in Rimini (more details here) to get you sorted once you're over there.

Frank has posted up the details of his trip to WDW2012 when he rode in this thread: http://www.ducatisportingclub.com/sh...d.php?t=125631

Who else is planning to attend, or thinking about attending, but is thinking of maybe flying over and just attending without a bike? My own experience from WDW2012 is that you really don't need a bike once you're at WDW as the event takes place within the circuit and everything is easy to walk around. You could potentially walk from Rimini/Riccione/Cattolica to the track as it's not that far away (about 3km at most) and there are also (cheap!) bus services around the area too. We took the bus one night from Riccione to Rimini to see the Ducati All-Stars band play and it cost us €1 each way!

So who is planning on going, how are you thinking of getting there and also let us know if you're looking to "buddy up" with others to drive/ride/fly down to WDW!

Over to you...

Top Man! Ant.

Good idea having a separate thread.

I'm sailing out using DFDS ferries from North Shields to Amsterdam - 10% off their ferries until end of Feb!

If I have my bearings right, Ant's map shows the marina, (just above the bold Cattolica text) which is where the first night beach party was in 2012.

So yes, its all quite close together.

Yes, that's right Frank. I think we walked to the beach party - can't remember to be honest, as I may have had a small sherry by that point - but I know that it really wasn't that far from the hotel to the circuit and lots of people were walking in/out on the road there!

So not having your bike out there certainly doesn't stop you from going.
