Cracking ride last night. Thank you for showing such hospitality and letting me join the group ride out. weather, roads and company made for a fantastic night. If you ever make the Nurburgring trip drop me a line and I'll meet you there and show you some of the Eiffel mountain roads.

Cheers.

Was good to meet you Sam. Your crazy ridding that beast with a leg broken in four places! I must say the Panigale is stunning! and what a noise it makes!
Turned out to be a nice sunny evening for a good blast I will take you up on the offer of the ring if I'm in Germany again. You need to get the engine run in and have a little top speed fun on the autobahn
Take care mate and you and your lads have a safe tour.

Right then guys, get this meeting into the calendar as a regular event - you know the best meeting spots and times now, so it's simply a case of turning up every month!!

We will try and have it as a regular event as long as work permits. Most of us are in the forces and it's not always easy to get out for a meet. Sam is based in Germany and was over here on course and to pick up his Panigale.
We met a few other guys on Dukes at West Bay who aren't on the DSC so I tried recruiting them. They said they would have a look so hopefully we will have a few more new members.

The good thing about having it in the calendar anyway is that others might start going along as well even if you can't make it!

This is how meetings start and what makes the Club

Sounds to me like you've just recruited yourself to a Regional Organiser role!!

Haha cheers, I wouldn't mind doing that. I would just be worried about people getting annoyed if I wasn't able to organise anything for a while if I had to go away with work, but then again I'm sure people would understand.

This isn't my first forum anyway so I understand how things work. I have been with the MLR (Mitsubishi Lancer Register) since 2007. There have been some very good regional organisers on there but unfortunately there are also a lot of people on forums who are very quick to criticise when they aren't happy with something, but hey you can't please everyone.

We just need the bloomin weather to improve! From being down at Poole Quay, Weymouth and West Bay I know there are plenty of Ducati owners about who may not be on the DSC. Does the DSC have contact/club cards that we could hand out to people or leave on their bikes to try and get new members?
