| Having ridden Ducatis for the last ten years, I'm often ignored by Jap bike owners when I nod at them on a run. However, I used my RC30 for the RTL trip, and I arrived in Glenridding on the Saturday evening - by which time the Lakes were booming to the sound of Ducatis.
Taking the RC for a last run over Kirkstone Pass before I hit the sleeping bag, I passed countless Ducatis heading in the opposite direction - bikes probably returning from Saturday's RTL run. I nodded at all of them (since I'd be meeting up with some of them the next morning) but very few actually returned the nod. Most of them blanked me. Blimey! 'Twas a shock to the system! And this despite the fact that I still had 'DUCATI' emblazoned all over my bike gear and helmet.
So... it works both ways methinks. |
