Ducati - the end of an era. RIP

It was a sad 2 weeks, this week (being race week) especially.

The long line of Ducati wins & entries has come to an abrupt end. Spectators who have turned out in their thousands may well have missed the death of a marqué, but I noticed it.

Go back to Mike-the-Bike's astonishing return to winning after a retirement of 13 years from racing in 1986 (?), Tony & Michael Rutter, Foggy, Hislop and many more.

This year there are no 125, 250 nor 400cc classes, instead we have Superstock and Superbike categories amongst others.

What am I telling you: there is not one single Ducati on the entry list at the IOM TT this year - bar the Parade of older race bikes.
3x Aprilias
3x Voxans
Everything else is an in-line 4 from the land of the rising sun.

RIP Ducati at the IOM TT.
