Ducati Day at Glenelg.
The weather was perfect so I rode down and J met me there.

I took JJ's SD out for the day.

Beautiful day, lunch and bikes.

Some pix.

Cool bikes and food!

Thanks for sharing Eddie,

and it looks like an awesome day out!

Lamone · 21 March 2012, 11:55 PM

Awesome pictures!
I miss my 748s...

MoBe · 21 March 2012, 11:59 PM

Used to have a silver and blue 900 SS , now it`s a 999 but I`d gladly trade the new for the old even though the new bike is scary fast the old one sounded way better!

Fantastic Eddie looks like a great day..reminds of my 750 SuperSport.... Never should have sold it back in 1982...

Btw, looks like it will need to be renamed next year...

Price is only $1billion... Maybe we could form a TRF syndicate and buy it ourselves... Let's see, 50,000 TRF members, works out about $...

Looks like it was a fantastic day. A lot of really nice bikes.

joeychitwood · 22 March 2012, 12:53 AM

Nice photos. Post more if you have them. I miss my 1999 Ducati ST2. It was great fun to ride, but it was a bit of a pain to maintain.

Very Nice Eddie, here's my first bike, passed only a few months ago. Pretty sure gonna be Ducati man myself. Next wanna get a streetfighter 848. Now I see where they styled their paul smart sport classic.

Andad · 23 March 2012, 05:32 PM

Some more pix for you Mark.

johnbeth · 23 March 2012, 06:20 PM

Awesome pics!

Andad · 23 March 2012, 06:58 PM

Thanks JB but I can't take all the credit.
I have a few digital cameras.
My favourites are my Sony N1 and N2,
This pix was taken with my N1.
2nd pix is cropped.

These cameras make it easy.

Eddie the digital cameras sure do help, however, the subject in the picture is awesome two!

Here is a close up for you.

stunning

joeychitwood · 23 March 2012, 11:27 PM

Thanks for posting new photos. For some reason, I remain a fan of the 916 and think it's probably one of the nicest bikes Ducati has ever produced.

I had two 916 SP's. A 1994 SP1 and a 1997 SP3. They were the fastest 'production?' sports bike at that time with a 0 - 60 of 2.6 seconds if you could keep the front wheel down. My current 1098 is almost as quick and is a lot more comfortable to ride (when you are approaching your mid 60's

).

Hang on I'll find a pix.

I found some scanned photographs of some of my toys from years ago.

I think some of you will enjoy these.

Thats so cool! Memory lane is the best!

Very nice pictures Eddie! Looks like you had a great day with your wife.

By the way, that Ferrari looks amazing! Not that I'm an expert but I love the looks of older models!

TswaneNguni · 24 March 2012, 10:21 PM

916 ..... special design

mjclark32 · 24 March 2012, 10:31 PM

Great pics Eddie! You definitely appreciate speed machines

joeychitwood · 24 March 2012, 11:18 PM

Great photos. Thanks for posting. The 851 is very nice also.

My 99 ST2 had Sil Motor carbon fiber slip-ons, and the sound from the V-Twin through those pipes was unforgettable and unmistakeable. I can hear a Duc coming from 1/4 mile away.

Pix · 24 March 2012, 11:58 PM

Nothing like the sound of an open clutch, and anything Italian bikes,cars or women are hard to maintain:)

Christiaan · 25 March 2012, 02:57 AM

Great pics! I miss my Duc. 900 SS open.

Speaking of Glenelg...
