GP Team Dinner 2005

The DOC were kindly invited along to Donington on Thursday night, the Day of Champions, by Ducati UK and Ducati Corse. We met Carlos Checa and Robbie Rolfo, had an excellent dinner courtesy of Ducati UK, and an excellent evening in the company of other Ducatisti. Here are some pictures.

Robbie Rolfo was mothered by the Monster Mob

And won the Gurning contest with Alex

Carlos Checa took time out for a quick cuddle

Robbie says "Honoured to meet you Jonno!"

"But I prefer to take this one home"

and was also heard to say "Spaggy who?"

During the Day of Champions the stunt show was a bit good (I can fall off better than that though!)

We caught a glimpse of life in Ducati's portable restaurant

and also in Checa's pit garage

where it was possible to look straight up the loud end of a Desmosedici

Our thanks go to Bobbie Cowley and the team at Ducati UK for the hospitality, and for inviting the club members along. Thank you from all of us.
