Ducati factory trip (Blatant Advert)
Ok guy's i'm just in the office planning my diary for 2006

I am working on some car trips for Mercedes and VW factory trips.

and it has crossed my mind that not all of the DSC's have been to the ducati factory.

Not all people like to Fly or even ride that distance.

I have knocked up some costings (rough) and I would be interested in running a few trips if anyone is interested.

Rough Itinerary would be ! based on 3 persons sharing.

Collection of persons from one destination! Ie ck's LOL

A ferry crossing

4 nights B&B on route There and back

A trip round the ducati factory, and then a lookin the Ferrari shop window at modena

A fantastic sight seeing tour of the Alps and all the twisty routes for you to plan your next biking holiday by

and all you will have to do is sit back relax and enjoy the views etc etc
would anyone be interested? men women and children welcome!

might well suit some people but have to be honest that for me the 2p return flights and a few euros for coach to and from the factory suit me better. its a very hard deal to beat if you just want an quick overnight trip.

very true Dickie and your not wrong there mate

But you know i would make it a nice little adventure

probably do some of the passes, a trip over lake constance (ferry) wine& Dine overlooking lake MaGGiore,and a slight detour on the way back to do a few sedate laps of the RING

Not Just a Ducati Trip Dickie more like a Mav's magicle mystery tour

I'll never do it as I don't have the time, but I can imagine it - top bloke you can trust 100% driving a nice car around the best roads and hotels across Europe with a couple of mates in the back, what a road trip

and another thing...............your post is in the 'non Ducati' section and it's about a trip to the Ducati factory.....I'm afraid you're banned for life now and you will need to give me twenty press-ups, 200 lines of 'Indiscriminate ramdom posting is a result of indiscipline' and drop your drawers for 6 of the best
