Interesting stuff. I would be very interested to see how the DSC membership mapped against known owners but that ain't gonna happen for various reasons? Is the proportion of DSC members to Ducati owners per area the same or different? In the old days the DSC did a lot to promote itself at race meets, I got to become aware of the Club from seeing info. at Brands and Donnington. Ducati Leeds used to and might still send out the DSC flyer with Every Ducati sold, old and new. The Yorks regional e-mailing list has about 30 or so recipients but I know for a fact that some have sold their bikes and/or not renewed. Any chance of a numbers breakdown just for Yorkshire Via U2U?? It'll be a help to see how the numbers match or not with the number on the e-mail list. I can see that more DSC events happen in the South but why? More willing Volunteers? More people support the events due to larger membership base? More DSC members with time to spend on our selfish hobby? Better weather? Better roads? (I don't fink so). Ray. [Edited on 15-7-2005 by Ray] |
