Why would you not want to include as many ducati models as possible? Asthetics, Tim? Come on!

and what about the new 620 Multistrada? Ok I will get my coat.........

It is interesting how much detail everybody goes into with all questions, some interesting points in all of this though.

It has to be a Ducati series, imagine the field day the press would have with a Ducati Club running Hondas!

I guess the intention of the series is firstly to have fun for existing members by taking a step up from track days which are perhaps at their limit of fun per pound already. I could never relax and enjoy the day fully knowing that I was riding my pride and joy and had yet to ride home on her.

The second reason would be I guess as increased exposure for the club and hopefully that would result in increased membership.

Perhaps more importantly it is a way of again putting of value back to the membership which has and always will be the ethos of this club, - it is for the members. I can see the events as being a great focus of involvement for not just those that are racing but for those members like me who would love to turn up (what a great family day out it could be) and watch and feel part of what was happening on track.
