I just sent out the all call for Laguna Seca Ducati Island Volunteer
staffing. If you did not get an email I do not have you on the list so
please respond to this email asap and I will send you one now. The
spots fill fast (they will likely book out in a few days).
Please pass the word to any Ducati owners who might be interested...

Compensation rules - two shifts qualifies for (1) general admission
pass, a special Ducati Team Ducatisti staff shirt (1 per shift) and 1
Ducati Island parking pass.If you prefer to work only 1 shift you will
receive a t shirt and parking (if you indicate you need it). If you
would like to work additional shifts for extra t-shirts or parking
passes get with me to arrange it in advance.

Thanks and hope to see you on Ducati Island!

Hey Guys,


I'm sure you remember the email about this bike. Due to my extensive racing activities and multiple race bikes, I have a large bill at the shop and am now willing to sell this baby for just enough to settle the bill. 

I've relisted the bike on Ebay and SLASHED the reserve. Someone is going to get an unbelievable deal on a REALLY good race / track day bike. If you have ANY interest at all, I encourage you to bid! Description below.


Thanks!
