Circuit of The Americas, the Austin racetrack that hosts the annual Formula 1 race, has named Mel Harder senior vice president and general manager. Harder spent 22 years with the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Vicki Smith for Ducati.net's insight:

Wow. Mel Harder is a Ducati guy and longtime friend of the brand.  This is a big gain for COTA and a really big loss to IMS.

Stefano Sbettega, marketing and communications director for Ducati North America, stood among the gleaming red, black and white machines -- near the espresso bar, in front of the red, black and white cupcakes, just to the side of the Ducati champagne -- and said that although the company is happy with the American response to its motorcycles, the year to come may well be Ducati's best....

Nudes, bodypaint and yoga have come together to create some intriguing "human motorcycles".

The "motorcycles" will tour with the Progressive International Motorcycle Shows in the US and are a culmination of collaboration between body paint artist Trina Merry and Ryan Berman.

The net result was three "human motorcycles" - a Ducati sport bike, a KTM dirt bike and a Harley-Davidson cruiser - which were created over three days.

Preview 2013: The International Motorcycle Show Comes to Our Hood from Ari Henning  

Wherever you live, odds are that some time between early November and late February you’ll hear about or see advertising for the International Motorcycle Show. IMS shows are held across the U.S., offering up a feast of motorcycle excitement in the middle of winter—when moto-stimulation is often at its lowest. This coming weekend, IMS is in Long Beach, CA, not far from our sprawling offices in El Segundo. The event runs from 4pm on Friday, December 7, to Sunday, December 9 at the Long Beach Convention Center.

KTM’s new 1190 Adventure. Mmmmmm.
“The Progressive International Motorcycle Shows is the nation’s largest and longest-running motorcycle show tour bringing all that is hot on two wheels to life by offering an up-close look at hundreds of new bikes from leading manufacturers, as well as the latest aftermarket parts and accessories. From New York to California, this tour is the destination for enthusiasts and newbies to immerse themselves in bike culture, talk to experts, learn new riding techniques and more.” That’s what the organizers say, and we have to agree. There’s nothing like a good old bike show to get the juices stirring.
