A Revisit Of The Ducati Museum Posted: 11 Sep 2013 09:00 AM PDT #Blogville #Ducati #Museum @DucatiMotor - A couple of years ago I visited the Ducati Factory and Museum, but now I was part of the Visit San Marino and the Emilia Romagna Tourist Board event, bring people like myself to not only visit this fantastic area of Italy, but also motorcycle events like the MotoGP and a visit to Ducati. I was the only motorcycle blogger in the group, but visiting Ducati is never boring, even if you have been several times. The first thing I noticed when we arrived at the Ducati factory, apart from the obvious many Ducati motorcycles in the staff car park, but now most, almost 90%, of the staff cars are Audi. I wonder why?.......... ...........Click on the headline to continue reading this story....... ...

The Sound Of A Ducati 899 Panigale Motorcycle Posted: 11 Sep 2013 06:30 AM PDT #Ducati #Blogville #899Panigale - The Ducati 899 Panigale just got announced a few days ago, and of course it is already being produced in the factory in Bologna, Italy. Since I was doing the tourist tours of San Marino and the Italian Emilia Romagna region, part of the program was to visit the Ducati factory and museum (more on that later on). We were asked not to make any photos inside the factory, and I did not (for once in my life). But when we arrived at the testing station where they were testing the new 899 Panigales coming off the factory belt, I could not resist to record the sound of the engines........... ...........Click on the headline to continue reading this story....... ...

New Air-Bag Vest: AllShot AIRV1 Posted: 11 Sep 2013 05:00 AM PDT #Airbag #Vests #Safety - Air-bag vests are quickly becoming more and more popular. With the safety proven during the many crashes you can see in MotoGP races, it is obvious that built-in air-bag systems can save lives, or at the very least, prevent serious injuries. French company AllShot have been a distributor of the Hit-Air air-bag vest system since the beginning, but now they have decided that the market has become big enough for them to make their own product. They have just launched the AIRV1 air-bag vest........... ...........Click on the headline to continue reading this story....... ...

France: Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Special Aerobatic Stunt Team For Sale Posted: 09 Sep 2013 11:00 PM PDT #Aerobatic #Stunt #HarleyDavidson - To celebrate the 110th birthday of Harley-Davidson, France's main aerobatic flying stunt team, the Patrouille de France, a v-Rod was customized in the colors of the stunt team; red, white and blue. The special motorcycle was used in several key events for both Harley's birthday and the stunt team's flying exhibitions. Now the customized v-Rod is going to be auctioned off........... ...........Click on the headline to continue reading this story....... ...

Truffles, Truffles and Many More Truffles Posted: 10 Sep 2013 02:00 PM PDT #BlogVille #Truffles #Italy - One of the more memorable visits was to the town of Sant'Agata Feltria, not to far from San Marino. Again on some fantastic motorcycles roads, you arrive at a very small village which is kind-of the capital of truffles, especially the speciality of the area, white truffles. We were met by several people involved in the truffle trade, from proprietary, world specialist, truffle hunters, trade fair organizers and even an armed park ranger........... ...........Click on the headline to continue reading this story....... ...

San Leo: Medieval Town In Italy - Torture Gala Posted: 10 Sep 2013 01:30 PM PDT #BlogVille #SanMarino #SanLeo - On my second day, we left San Marino early in the morning and drive some of the fantastic motorcycle roads up to a medieval town called San Leo. The roads were perfect for motorcycles, twisting left and right, sharp - often 340°. Too bad we were in a van. San Leo is a very old town, with a church dating back before 810, built using pagan temple stones, and a cathedral dating back to around 1100. The castle on the hill is as good as impregnable, built on steep cliffs, with only one access road, anyone stupid enough to attack will be sorry for the short life they will live. Inside the castle is a small museum with all the fun & games the gentry played in those days, i.e., torture materials. Gory stuff, and no, I'm not going to show it........... ...........Click on the headline to continue reading this story....... ...
