Hi all - London based Ducati 750 Paso owner here - found the site at the BMF yesterday... This is the story of Nellie, a lovely red Paso, bought at an autojumble and rebuilt: new carbs, modified Monster 900 airbox in carbon fibre, lots of little odds & sods & original race pipes :cool:...

[beancounter]

Welcome bikerchick

I guess if you're going to be BC now, I'll have to be something else........:(

[Steve M]

Hi BCmk2.

Bike sounds interesing - any pics.

A southern and coke please for me:)

[everton]

May I add my welcome also BikerChick.

Looks like my website demo worked and left an impression also :smug:

As I told you at the weekend there are plenty of groups to meet up with -

The Beds/Herts/Cambs - I believe they're planning a meet from Hatfield soon so that will be a good un.

Berks/Oxon - my area. Look out for posts by Karl (regional organiser). Just a quick blat for you down the M4 & we're terribly nice people here in the Royal county

Hants - bit of a rough lot but friendly. Keep you hand on your wallet at all times - they organise well marshalled rideouts, just ensure your Paso can cruise round the 140 mark

Surrey/Sussex - two different groups but sarf of the river!

Essex - maybe not, They're in Essex, nuff said :D

Make sure you get to one of the DesmoDue days as well.

Finally, there are lot's of impromptu rideouts & meets so keep your eyes on the site and the board, so ably demonstrated to you by moi - here amongst those jolly nice friendly Berks/Oxon people :smug::smug:

[misterpink]

Interesting choice of Duke!!?? is this your first? how a bout a pic for the record........and a drink? make mine a Bolly. I'm north london too - make sure you keep it locked.

[Bikerchick]

Thanks for the info Everton - Paso cruises at 150 if needs be but I'm having it geared down a tad for towne :cool: Your website demo certainly worked - congratulations to all concerned on the stand at BMF - outstanding achievement :roll:

Apologies to BC - can we share initials?

Misterpink - this is my first Duc, but not my first bike - interesting it certainly is, temperamental too :( both bikes are securely locked :mad: I'll have some bolly too :bouncy: BC

[Dibble]

also keep an eye out for evening blats to either Chelsea Bridge, Bar Italia or The Ace Cafe ......

I tend to post some warning .....

[Bikerchick]

... Where do you post blat warnings :puzzled: would love to join in...

Am often to be found at the Ace on my work horse-very loud, black suzook with little blue hooligan light on the front and a black double bubble, often in the company of mad Hardley Ablesome rider...:D The Duc's my fave tho :bouncy: BC

[Dibble]

How long have you been riding? Do you commute around London?

There's a bunch going to Castle Coombe next Saturday. Leaving early from Tring. Are you up for a rideout? Would be a good way to meet the racing boys and their supporters.
