Cheers Presidente, good read... and stickers!!
Thought "The Agony and Ecstacy of Ducati Racing" was going to be a behind the scene expose of a desmodue Grande though:(

Yes, about time you lot all got some replacement screen stickers!
We now have quite a few to last us a while though.

As for the article, I would love to have some DD in there but I'm so out of touch with you lot now that I couldn't do it justice.

However, if anyone wants to write an article on DD, or any other Ducati-related subject, then please do as it means you won't have to read about my mechanical incompetence in the shed much more!!

Oh, and thanks to Colin for his article on the 996 - he gets a t-shirt for his effort from the lost property^H^H stock cupboard.

Thanks for the Pronto and the stickers. I'm saving it to read at work tonght.
I could do with one more set of stickers..pretty please.

Clint.

got the stickers, but no mag?

Do we need to use ALL those? I don't have much bodywork to attach them to! :D

LOL, those are your DD stickers you numpty.
You'll get a copy of Pronto, the magazine, arrive in the post shortly.

And yes, you should be using all of those.

Fork legs, tank, seat unit, swingarm, bellypan ... plenty of room!

steeevvvooo 27-Feb-2012 21:19

knew they were for the bike, just wasn't sure where to stick them all :) might have some space on my visor ;)

Will keep an eye on the post for the mag. Thought they came together from the above posts

Nope - you DD racers get a set of sponsors stickers. Club members get a pair of screen stickers in the mag. So yes, you'll get both!

No you don't,

You should be fitting the Two vinyl cut Ducati Sporting Club Stickers (although many bikes will already have them)

The Two Gel Dunlop Stickers (Same as Moto2 use)

and a Couple from the large Dunlop Sheet say on the Swingarm or the forks, but feel free to use all of them if you wish.

At least Dunlop do let us have the tyres at a very reasonable rate.

Well having read front to back....twice, just in case I missed it. Not a word about last years DD. Neal Cattlins accident, Mr Appleby's and my title wins, Rons and Kevs throwing it away etc, etc. but Mr T getting engaged, got some page space. :confused:

Thats disapointing, even if something had been copied off of the forum would have been better than nothing. The ammount of times I've been told its the clubs race series yet the clubs magazine gives little or no coverage

Seems people are happy to update Wikipedia and post loads on facebook but send nothing in to Pronto

As per my post up there ^^ I'm more than happy to include articles that are sent to me via the pronto@ducatisportingclub.com email address - it is the magazine written by the members for the members after all - but if you don't send them I can't include them!

Ghost 28-Feb-2012 00:56

Ant, JT didn't write in about his engagement, or did he.

We have an open position for Pronto Editor if you would like to volunteer?

JasonBoswell 28-Feb-2012 22:28

Presumably someone other Antony could have written an article about DD if it was so important?

I've put up a post in the Pronto section requesting articles for Issue # 47, so if anyone would like to contribute, please feel free!

I have mine, I thought it was a good read.

As stated above, if people want more DD content, then someone needs to write it, but it can't be too topical because of the time frames involved - how about a newcomer to the series/racing telling his or her story? Something uplifting and motivational that might encourage others to enter?

I think you find all the DD goings on on Facebook these days, not in Pronto or on the forum
I Popped into Donington yesterday on the way back from a job
6 DD bikes out testing but not a mention on the site of how things went.
