Tribuna. The literal translation is “grandstand” but the word seems to have evolved from Roman times when a Tribunal was a raised platform for addressing the troops or administering justice. Find yourself in the middle of Tribuna Mugello (or any other jam packed Ducati grandstand) and you’ll see just how short that string is back to Roman times. It starts the first time the Ducati Corse riders pass on the track the first session of the weekend and the Ducati passion crescendo rises as the race day gets closer. On Sunday it all steps up a notch when the Desmodromiclub of Roma steps in to oversee the over the top display of Ducati love the tribuna Mugello is so famous for, the card stunt. It’s something different every time, but it’s always a grand gesture, a literal embrace from thousands of Ducati fans to their riders and the world. It all started at Mugello but now they take place at many of the races and the grandstand at the IndyGP is actually called the Project Mugello grandstand, named that because at Indy we wanted to do a card stunt that would make the Italians proud. We got a hurricane instead....

Recently Ducati.net attended a Ducati club President worldwide gathering in Italy and got a chance to meet and share ideas with club Presidents from all around the world. It’s an interesting group of people, mostly men of course but there are a few women and they tend to stand out. (Less than 2% of Ducati clubs in the world are led by women). We saw this photo and asked for the back story. This is what the club told us…. The article this photo was taken for, was made as one of several media stories about a female Ducati Club president in Norsk Ducatiforening Desmodromene (Norwegian Association Ducati Desmodromene). Her name is Vibeche Tveit (2nd from the left) and her project is to present the Ducati environment in such a way that it appears attractive also for female Ducati owners.

As anybody that has attended IndyGp over the last few years knows, the Ducati scene there is significant and Ducati.net is proud to have been part of making that happen. This year, the Indy Desmo Owners Club has stepped up and taken on the traditional Friday night Ducati owners dinner and partnering with the town of Speedway, taken the Friday night event to an all new level. Just across from the racetrack, ”Sprockets On Speedway” takes place on Friday evening, August 17th and in partnership with the Speedway Chamber of Commerce will feature an amazing collection of motorcycles and Ferrari’s. Dawson’s on Main will be the hub of the layout, which showcases the incredible new Dallara IndyCar Factory, the Indy Racing Experience and Sarah Fisher Hartman Racing. If you haven’t seen this new area of town, literally steps from the Speedway this is the night to check it out! For the rest click HERE
Ducati Motorcycling enthusiasts from around New England - and as far away from New York - came to Concord for a motorcycle rally last week to celebrate what they feel is the artistic superiority of their machines. Held at the Sunoco station on Loudon Road, dozens of Ducati owners came to eat, socialize and brag about their bikes in preparation for riding the New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon. Ted Gooch of Northwood, president of New England Desmo Owners, hosted the event. Gooch explained that Desmo is another name for Ducati, a nickname created after the special valves on the bike.
