- Boorowa Ride Report - Constitution Update

Ciao Members,

I would like to start with the constitution, and thank everybody who came along to not only the meeting but also to vote. It passed almost unanimously (excepting one peanut who decided to vote no after not reading it). This is a good thing for the club bringing it into line with the model rules and protecting the club and its members.

Recently nine club members attended the autumn leaf rally as part of a fundraising and catering occasion. Taso has said that after all expenses that there was a profit to the club of $2,100.- which will really help the club with paying for the essential items like insurance and getting some nice bits in too, like new stock for regalia or otherwise. Without the volunteer help, none of that fundraising would be possible. Thanks again to those who helped.

Still plenty of events in the calendar. We have asked Desmo Harmonic if they would put a Sunday aside to help the club out and run a service day. DOCNSW’s Italian bike swap meet is on, and some great rides too over the next month.

<< VP Dribble #6 >>

G’day to the great unwashed, what an awesome month we have had.

OK, Auto Italia was last month but being on the cusp we didn’t get to talk about it much. I reckon the venue is a much better location than last years, but then again anything is better than that paddock. Being the first time at EPIC there were some teething issues but, on the whole, it was a good turnout for both the bikes and cars. A big congratulations to Grant Fuller for getting best in show for his only just finished latest build. Also a big thank you to all the volunteers for their time and efforts in making our display so good.

You have to wonder though, there were three trophies available for scooters and only two scooters turned up and still our esteemed ex editor still managed to go home without a trophy, I reckon it was pay back for forgetting to adjust is clocks for the end of daylight saving which saw him sitting at EPIC from around 0430hr in the morning., silly bugga.

Another big one for the club was the Autumn Leaf catering effort, but you will have to read my story on that one further in the newsletter.

Ciao for now.

Magnificent 7" has to wait another year

Something for everyone at COTA!

- wins for the first time since Silverstone three years ago, -Rossi fans start talking about another championship title, -Miller stakes his claim for the 2020 factory ride and -Dovi comes out leading the Championship.

Everyone has Marquez to thank for an exceptional error, crashing out when the race was again his to lose, meaning none of the three 2019 finished the race.

But for fans, it was all about Dovi and Miller. After a horrendous qualifying for Dovi, he made amends on the first lap getting up to eighth after the first corner (thanks to Gino's very effective "tyre cooler") and while managing to pick up a few spots afterward, attrition did the job leaving him in fourth at the end to lead the Championship. No doubt he still can't believe is luck.

Miller also rode a fine race, despite him telling reporters about 6th gear, lock to lock tank slappers at 350kph on the back straight! How's this for scary? He told reporters later that his "feet came off the pegs and when I got to the end of the straight the brakes were gone. I had to pull the lever six times".

What's even scarier is Roberts sits all alone at the top of the tipping with Tony, Craig and George closely following. How long can this madness continue?

Maybe Jerez will have some answers.

Hi again happy campers, it’s your esteemed VP with a story of my Autumn Leaf.

The story actually starts on Thursday 25th April, as well as being your club VP I am also the Canberra rep for the Military Police Association Australia (MPAA) and as such I marched in this year’s parade. It was great and I got to catch up with old friends. The only problem is that due to years of personal abuse my knees are stuffed. Really stuffed. So stuffed that by the time I had walked to the form up point, marched, then walked (limped) back to Olims I was in a certain amount of discomfort. So what I hear you say, read on.

Friday, I have packed up the non-Italian Sarge Barge and decided to ride to the rally via Wee Jasper. A lot shorter than going via Hume Hwy. This route is only 130 odd K’s long but it does have about 36Km of dirt that varies between bloody horrible and bloody terrific. Now FB had indicated that the local shop at Wee Jasper had re opened so I planned to grab some lunch there. Lucky, I did take a bit of extra food cause FB lied. The shop was closed up tight. After letting the Barges tires down by 4psi I rode on to Tumorrama without issue.

Arriving at the rally site around 1330hr I set up camp and got into the serious part of the rally, drinking and taking the piss out of friends. Friday afternoon and evening was a little blowy and overcast a most of us expected to get wet, however the skies cleared and a cold night was enjoyed by all. The Tumut Valley Riders (TVR) members fed the hardy souls on curry, Rogan josh with rice and potato bake for the princely sum of gold coin donation and the drinking continued.

PO BOX 1282 CANBERRA CITY ACT 2601 www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au

Saturday morning dawned clear and there was a nice layer of white across most objects in the paddock. The first CDDC to turn up was our glorious leader and Angelica at around 1030hr with the rest of the crew arriving not long after. With all hands-on deck we quickly got the catering setup and lunch cooking with food available from 1130hr onwards. On Saturday the team setup was Taco and Michael on the BBQ, Al on the soup, Janine and Joey on food construction, Craig and Angelica were helping them and was on food distribution with Yvette on the cash box and yours truly pretending to be in charge. Sunday morning things changed around a bit with Taco and Al on the BBQ. Remember those knees I mentioned earlier, I quickly found I couldn’t stand for very long. Yeah, I know, no sympathy at all – right?

Anyways the catering went off like a bomb and we made a healthy amount for the club, everyone had fun, some met up with old acquaintances and some had a small win. The fire was excellent and it burnt nice and hot.

After packing up on Sunday morning it was good bye till next year home via the same route with a stop at Wee Jasper to re inflate the tyres and I was home around mid-day.

If you haven’t done it yet you should join us next year as the banter inside the catering tent is hilarious. Oh, and there was a band. Thursday night, as I left the committee meeting a rather attractive lady asked if I was at the rally as she was the singer from the band. That’s all!

Held in the grounds of the Tumorrama Hall 35km east of Tumut on the Wee Jasper Road hosted by the Tumut Valley Riders MC, the 2019 Autumn Leaf Rally was held on 5/6 May 2019. As has happened for the past 2 years, the mighty, hardworking, creative, excellent CDDC Catering Team led by tyrant Taso Samios, catered for the Rally. See some pics taken @ the Rally below to give you an insight on what a bush rally looks/feels like. It might inspire you to attend the upcoming Apollo Rally – see elsewhere in this newsletter for the details.

Night time features chatting, reminiscing, tall tales, fables, legends, making new friends

A few BMWs attended and were treated accordingly The CDDC gastronomic emporium

The CDDC catering is a good exercise for the club in terms of attending/supporting a local rally, although I heard the band was awful. I couldn’t attend as I had too much ironing on that weekend and I’ve learned with some bitter experience that rallies isn’t my thing. The rally was a success financially for the club earning a net profit of $2,130.00, so well done to the CDDC team. Ybaf

TOMMO’S 750SS

Founder and life member Ian Thompson sent me some words & pics recently re his 750SS. Ian originally had a 750 Sport (which he regrettably sold) to buy a 750SS. He road and tracked it – see the pic and Ian’s words below.

My dad Kel (our club grandfather?) and his 860GTS and yours truly on a very rare occasion the race bike saw the open road fitted with the optional double seat that came with the Supers. This was 1977, the year the club was founded. The SS is seen at Oran Park coming on to main straight at speed. I would wear through a left exhaust and pair of boots in a season. Ahhhhh, all too much fun.

Ian’s style is very much like ; ‘no knees down’. But Ian was probably faster. Some members will well remember the pic of Ian on Grant Fuller’s 750 Sport taken @ NDR in 2018. His position on the Sport gave hints then he was a Hailwood style rider but now there’s firm proof with this pic. This contrasts with other members, like ex-Pres Taso (Autumn Leaves) Samios, who is v/much in the modern style with his knees on the bitumen everywhere, even in Woolies car park.

PO BOX 1282 CANBERRA CITY ACT 2601 www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au Creating an NCR Replica By Grant Fuller

This is the story of the building of a 1979 NCR Replica, which was completed in April 2019, 40 years after the originals. It is not intended to give a step by step account of the project or to provide individual specifications of components, dimensions or materials used for each item. However out of interest there are components on the motorcycle made from chrome molybdenum, titanium, ergal, magnesium and other high-grade aluminium all with the aim to reduce weight and provide the necessary strength where required. The finished product is over 40 kilograms lighter than a road going 1979 900SS.

The story begins in 1981 when I was offered my first ride on a Ducati. The bike was a 1976 900SS that had spent part of its life on the race track, but had since been returned to road use, still retaining many of the race components. For the bodywork it was fitted with a Ducati fibreglass race tank, and a replica fairing from a 1978 NCR. It was also painted in the traditional red and silver paint scheme of an NCR. A paint scheme that suited the Ducati but also really stood out.

This motorcycle made an impact, the performance and looks was something that inspired me. I instantly wanted a Ducati after having ridden the SS, and within 2 weeks I was very fortunate to be offered a 1973 750 Sport in November 1981 which I purchased and still own today.

Over the years I collected as many photos, technical articles and specifications on the NCR racing machines that I could, as I dreamed of one day making some form of replica of one of these amazing race bikes. The more I researched, the more I learnt that these machines were very exotic and in fact used very little in the way of production Ducati components. Many items may look similar but are made to either finer tolerances, better materials or are totally different to production items. The front forks are a good example of this. Over the years I was even fortunate enough to obtain some genuine NCR components.

In 1997 I purchased 1974 750GT with the intention of making a replica of a mid 1970’s Formula 750 race bike, as used by Scuderia Spaggiari. This was much easier to replicate and produce as the majority of components on these were either production items or modified production items. This machine was finished in late 2002, however the NCR was still my ultimate goal to replicate.

In 2001 I purchased a chrome moly Verlicchi SS racing chassis to base my NCR replica on. I knew the Verlicchi chassis wasn’t correct but I thought finding a Daspa chassis as used by NCR was not a possibility and the Verlicchi chassis being chrome moly was lighter and stronger than a standard Ducati chassis. I intended to modify this chassis by adding bracing and modifying footpeg mounts to look as close as possible to a Daspa.

PO BOX 1282 CANBERRA CITY ACT 2601 www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au

Most Ducati fans are aware of the 1978 NCR, as this was the machine that Mike Hailwood won on at the Isle of Man that year. The 1978 model had very special crankcases that were impossible to obtain, so that ruled out making a replica of this, but fortunately for the 1979 season the FIM had made a rule change to the Formula 1 category which stated that production crankcases had to be used. So I chose to make a replica of the 1979 NCR and the next item I obtained was a 1979 Ducati engine minus heads. The only items used from this were the crankcase halves as all of the internals for the replica were once again quite special. This sourcing of components continued for the next 16 years, but many items couldn’t simply be purchased. Many had to be made or modified as was originally done by NCR.

Fortunately being a Fitter Machinist with a good range of machine and hand tools in my workshop, made the realisation of an accurate replica a real possibility. I say this because over the years I have seen many articles and bikes purporting to be NCR replicas, but some were nothing more than a paint job and a few decals. Some people had gone a bit further and fitted replica bodywork and a few modified parts here and there, but my intention was to make something as accurate as possible.

This meant spending many hours machining parts out of solid blocks of material, getting components specially cast and sometimes fabricating or forming items by hand. This process continued for many years as I slowly assembled a collection of items that one day would culminate in the assembly of 1979 NCR.

As mentioned the replica is very light when compared to a road going Ducati, and one item that many people don’t even consider for weight savings are the bevel tubes. They are not a structural component so therefore are not required to be made from steel which is then chrome plated. On the replica a high-grade aluminium alloy tubing was machined to replace the heavy steel originals which are 208 grams versus 68 grams of the alloy versions.

And speaking of solid alloy blocks being machined to form components, the rear brake calliper bracket began life as a block of 6061 T6, alloy measuring 75 x 75 x 300mm. After more than 20 hours of machining on both a lathe and milling machine this block of alloy was now a strong and practical brake bracket. This single bracket replaces 4 separate items on the standard Ducati setup, but this is not the only benefit. This bracket wraps around the swingarm and stays in place once the rear wheel is removed, the reason NCR made it in the first place. This makes wheel changing quicker and easier.

Later on the correct Daspa chassis was sourced so the motorcycle had to be totally stripped as it was already nearing completion as a dummy setup. The Verlicchi chassis was sold, and 1979 bodywork was located along with a genuine Ducati Factory racing exhaust.

PO BOX 1282 CANBERRA CITY ACT 2601 www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au

2017 was the beginning of the assembly process of this project, and even this stage did have some major hurdles to overcome. A set of 1979 Ducati crankcases didn’t fit straight into a 1979 Daspa chassis. Many hours of modification and machining and I finally could fit the bare cases into the chassis. A lot of the assembly proved to be like this, with some components being made 2 or 3 times until I was totally satisfied with the quality of the finished product.

All of the machining work, fabrication, engine building undertaken on this project was carried out by myself except for the eye-catching paint work, which really highlights what beautiful motorcycles the NCRs were.

The motorcycle was finished the day before the 2019 Auto Italia vehicle display in Canberra where it won, Best Sorts/Race Bike, and Best Motorcycle on Show.

Specifications of 1979 NCR Formula 1 Replica: Engine: 905cc displacement, 11.4 to 1 compression ratio. 42mm inlet & 38mm exhaust valves. Factory racing camshafts. Ignition: Ignitech programmable ignition module. Carburettors: Malossi 42.5mm race. Gearbox: NCR 5 speed close ratio.

PO BOX 1282 CANBERRA CITY ACT 2601 www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au Boorowa by bevel - mid-week ride by the bevel boys

Bevels to Boorowa, Binalong, Bowning – bloody hell there’s far too many Bs, let alone this is separate to the CDDC committee. The annual Bevels to the Bay run by the CDDC may now have a rival?? The bevels dominated the mid-week ride to Boorowa on Wed 17 April. The riders were Leigh Campbell - 1976 750SS, John Lloyd - 1978 Mike Hailwood Replica, Chris Roberts – 1984 MHR Mille, Keith White 2016 Multistrudel & Peter Yeend – 2008 Hyper.

At our meeting in Yass we were joined by Marilyn Starick and Steve Hopkins on his beautiful 1981 SS Darmah. Steve & Marilyn were present paying respects as we were meeting v/near their Yass home. It was nice they made the effort to greet & send us off!! Steve’s long-standing hip issue had flared up after a recent fall off his trailer, so he couldn’t go on the ride, which was a great pity as the ride was in his local area and his SS Darmah is a beauty!! Next time. I had been thinking of the ride in the days leading up to Wed, hoping both Steve & Grant Fuller would attend as I wanted to see/observe Steve’s 1981 SS Darmah alongside Grants’ 1980 SS Darmah. Woulda made some great pics as they are both in immaculate condition and v/nice looking bikes.

Yass meeting

It was a beautiful late Autumn day – mild and sunny v/unlike the recent Harrietville Run (see report in April newsletter). The destination was Boorowa so some discussion was had re the best route to take. In the end we took Steve’s advice and went along the Harden-Murrumburrah Rd turning off @ the grain silos after Binalong, being the Galong to Boorowa Rd. Well Steve’s advice was excellent as this road is smooth and fast and no traffic. It was along this road I had a transcendental experience - I thought I’d died and gone to heaven. I got passed by Chris Roberts on his Mille and immediately behind me was John Lloyd on his ’78 MHR. So for 20ks I was in a red, white & green MHR sandwich. I started to hallucinate with visions I was racing @ the Isle of Man in 1978 both leading Mike Hailwood and at the same time being pursued by Mike Hailwood. My visions sometimes are vivid and have a tenuous attachment to reality!! Of course I was hallucinating – let me assure you it was not reality. This was disconcerting & foreign to someone like me as I’ve never taken hallucinogenic drugs and I’ve always had a v/close attachment to reality only. V/strange!!! Some may disagree but they’d be mistaken!!

PO BOX 1282 CANBERRA CITY ACT 2601 www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au

Lunch was @ the ‘Top Pub’ (as it’s known locally), which is reputed to have the best Guinness outside Dublin. I’m sure there are few places in Ireland who’d dispute that claim. The return trip took a route known to Chris Roberts, who warned us it was a bit bumpy. It wasn’t too bad for a NSW country road, which is a v/low benchmark, as 98% of NSW country roads are just bituminised goat tracks. Chris’s road is known as the Hughestown Rd and it went direct to Binalong.

Steve’s SS Darmah in Yass as well as John’s ’78 MHR

Top Pub Boorowa

Chris said to me after the run that when he was at a servo, he got approached by an interested driver who liked his ‘special one-off colour scheme’ on his older Ducati. Chris had to politely tell him that the red, green, white was not a one-off special but a factory colour scheme. Knowledge of older Ducatis is not as universal as we might think (or assume). Speaking of one-off nice-looking specials I was talking to Steve in Yass saying to him that I can remember when his SS Darmah came out in 1981. They then were a style & visual sensation!! A bit like when the 1st 2 t]one 500 Pantahs came out in 1980.

From Binalong it was the doddle to Yass and then the Barton Hwy to Canb. All-in-all a great relaxing ride through much underrated beautiful NSW countryside. The tendency in the CDDC is to go on rides to the south coast via the Kings Hwy or via the Monaro Hwy to Cooma, the latter solely as it leads to the mtns. We don’t do enough rides to the area/places immediately to the north of Canb to enjoy the towns & beautiful scenery around Yass, Jugiong, Gundagai, Boorowa, Cootamundra etc. We’ve been neglectful of this area. ybaf

Vale Guiliano Maoggi

With great sadness, Ducati announced the death of Giuliano Maoggi, the oldest Ducati rider, winner of the 1956 Motogiro d’Italia on a Ducati Marianna. You may not know the name but you will never forget the photo of him with a cigarette clenched in his teeth after his win.

The man in the picture was Giuliano Maoggi. He was nicknamed il duca italiano "The Italian Duke". He gained notoriety in the 1950's as a factory rider as Ducati was building their company through racing success. The picture was taken in 1956 on board a 125cc Gran Marianna during the Motogiro di'Italia, which Maoggi won. The Motogiro di‘Italia was equivalent to a modern-day Baja 1000 or "Bull Run" where riders and machines tested their endurance across the Italian peninsula. Ducati, literally, built their company on race results, and has stuck to that proven formula through today.

Desmo – the next step forward The word or term Desmo is now synonymous with Ducati. Ducati exclusively uses Desmo valves in its MotoGP racer unlike all the other competing manufacturers who use pneumatic valves in MotoGP. Well digital valves are the next step forward and may see the one engine acting alternatively as a 4 stroke and a 2 stroke. There are no timing belts or valve springs, with each valve getting its own miniature camshaft, complete with a desmodromic system that opens and closes the valves precisely and mechanically. And instead of being driven off the crank, each valve's camshaft is controlled by an electric motor. Interesting days – see here: https://newatlas.com/camcon-digital-iva-valve-system/55827/

Road test on Multistrudel 950 Enduro Ducati’s newest all terrain bike, the 950 Multistrudel Enduro gets put through its paces here: https://amcn.com.au/editorial/quick-spin-ducati-multistrada-950-enduro/. Perhaps this is far more sensible & rational size for this sort of bike that then big bopper 1200 Multistrudel?? Many would argue that any dual-purpose bike over 600cc is overkill, let alone 950cc or esp 1200cc. Worth a look as these ‘adventure’ bikes are big sellers @ the moment. Question. If you fell off your 1200cc Multistrudel on a lonely isolate fire trail, could you pick it up? I suggest its nup.

MV Agusta bought by Russian billionaire Mercedes-Benz's performance division AMG no longer holds a stake in the Italian motorcycle manufacturer MV Agusta.

For elections - be careful what you wish for A man was riding his Ducati beside a Sydney, Australian, beach when suddenly the sky clouded above his head and in a booming voice, The Lord said, and “Because you have TRIED to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish.". The rider pulled over, thought about it, and said, "Build a bridge to New Zealand with lots of high-speed curves so I can ride over anytime I want." The Lord said: "Your request is materialistic, think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking, The supports required reaching the bottom of the Ocean and the concrete and steel it would take! It will nearly exhaust several natural resources. I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Take a little more time and think of something that could possibly help mankind." The rider thought real hard about it for a long time. God, in that case, Lord I wish you could make the politicians of Australia keep promises after they are elected. That I and all the voters could believe one word coming out of their mouths. There was a long silence. Then The Lord replied: "You want two lanes or four on that bridge"?

I disguised myself as a cactus in a pot plant to sneak a pic so the security guards wouldn’t see me. See below. I know I fooled the security guards disguised as a cactus as I heard one of them say he thought I was a prick. While in disguise I heard a current CDDC Panigirlie rider begging for a test ride and willing to pay the required $2 but he was sternly refused. He promised to return it and only turn left, but no luck. It looked as if it had hand hand-cut slicks on so maybe it wasn’t road legal?? I personally don’t like the blue/yellow paint-work - should be only yellow if they wanna sell lots. But I suppose taste and the lack of good looks hasn’t deterred others from buying current Panigirlies. From what I can see if you plan to do a track day, you’d need to ensure it is a counter clockwise track as this model is not good turning right. Well that’s another scoop for the CDDC newsletter team. So for the 1 or 2 members who read the newsletter, you saw it here 1st. ybaf

This little jigger attaches to your license plate holder, adding a radar that looks back some 30 ft (9 m) on both sides of the rider. When it detects something, it lights up a little flashing indicator you attach to your mirror, and also helpfully vibrates your seat in a fashion that's "strong enough for you to feel through your riding gear." The Senzar kit (and similar ones that fit to trailers, trucks and motorhomes) is due to launch soon on the Senzar website. Early birds will get it for half price – but it's half of a rather large price and will still cost you US$399.

Ducati Super Sport road test I think Bill Campbell is the only CDDCer who currently owns a Super Sport?? Nevertheless, I think they’re a much underrated Ducati model. It kinda falls between the gaps like the old ST3/4s used to – not a full-on sports bike, not a full on adventure bike, not a straight out touring bike. So does that mean it’s really and all-rounder?? I think so. Tis also like the 900SS series of the 1990s, which was a big, big seller for Ducati.. See here for a road test: http://www.motorcycledaily.com/2019/02/2019-ducati-supersport-md-long-term-review-part- 1/. The test has 2 parts and is a good read, esp the many comments/feedback from Super Sport owners.

55,000 miles around the world on a A Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled was the noble steed chosen for such a pilgrimage... Not your typical globe- trotting adventure bike (GS1200 being the default), but clearly up to the challenge. Originally the Sled was only meant to cover a mere 35,000 miles, but it actually ended up covering over 55,000! The main purpose of Henry’s journey was to raise money for the Movember Foundation and increase awareness of mental health, something which Henry has unashamedly struggled with in the past.

Braidwood to Nowra Rd One road that has not been much travelled by CDDC riders in the past is the Braidwood to Nowra Rd. Why? Mainly because it’s been a lot of dirt in the past, but perhaps that’s no impediment to the Strudel punters??

Ducati sales @ Bonhams Las Vegas 2019

Bonhams held their motorcycle auction in Las Vegas on Jan. 24. Top price was expected for the ex-Hans Stärkle 1949 Vincent Black Lightning race bike, with over $360,000 anticipated. Bidding stalled at $285,000. One of only 67 built, a “never raced” Ducati Supermono fetched $115,000, while a series C Black Shadow sold for $95,450. See here: https://www.motorcycleclassics.com/classic-motorcycle-touring/classic-motorcycle- events/2019-las-vegas-auctions- zm0z19mjzhur?newsletter=1&spot=cta&utm_source=wcemail&utm_medium=email&utm_ca mpaign=MCC%20eNews%2004.18.2019&utm_term=MCC_eNewsAll%20Subscribers&_wcs id=5319EDACFF2CD1A23C88832E0538226502029EDA19C38463 Mecum’s green frame 750SS Ducati sold at $247,500.

At the auction Italian motorcycle prices have been rising sharply, with the average for MV Agusta’s breaking $50,000 and Ducati’s pushing $30,000. Two Mike Hailwood Replicas were on offer at Bonhams. This one made $13,250.

Clean original Italian Superbikes were also creating more interest. MV Agustas in pristine condition also jumped into the six-figure club. An MV America went for a new record. A Ducati 750SS went for $245,000, breaking last year’s record of $175,000. The key seems to be clean original paint. PO BOX 1282 CANBERRA CITY ACT 2601 www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au

Protest against Ducati for the good of the sport?? Suzuki MotoGP boss David Brivio said the process of lodging an appeal against Ducati’s new under-bike spoiler after the Qatar Grand Prix will be good for the future of the championship. Joining Aprilia, KTM and Honda in filing a protest only settled in favour of Ducati yesterday by the FIM Court of Appeals, Brivio says that despite being defeated in court he’s happy with the outcome. See here: https://www.motorcyclenews.com/sport/motogp/2019/march/motogp- suzuki-boss-brivio-says-ducati-protest-good-for-the-sport/

Well what a loads of cod’s wallop!!

The so-called explanation/justification given by Brivio, that it was for the good of the sport is a complete load of tosh!! No MotoGP team manager has ever done anything ‘for the good of the sport’. They only act for the exclusive benefit of their own team and if they are not doing that then they’re not doing their job. They didn’t need to protest something new – all they had to do was informally ask the FIM to rule if the new spoiler was OK with the regs. You don’t need to formally lodge a protest to achieve a ruling. Just asking gets a ruling. Lodging a formal protest has the benefit, for all other teams, of the potential of Ducati being disqualified and losing points.

The original kerfuffle with spoilers was with the front winglets being a safety concern. They were a sharp angle sticking out and if a bike hit another rider, it may cause increased injury. This concern has been there since hit in 1983 causing permanent brain damage.

It’s interesting to note that while Honda was a co-appellant against the rear wheel spoiler, they’ve now also got their own version of the rear spoiler. See here: https://www.motorcyclenews.com/sport/motogp/2019/march/motogp-teams-pushing-limits- on-spoiler-ruling/ ybaf

Stile Italiano Caracchi tribute Stile Italiano have built a stunning custom Ducati MHR1000 as a tribute to Rino Caracchi – the final member of tuning house NCR who passed away last year. See here: https://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/2019/april/stile-italiano-ducati-mhr1000/ If you’re not familiar with the NCR name, they were a group of Italian engineers who built Ducati race bikes when the factory didn’t have a racing programme of their own. Their work is legendary but the bike they’re most famous for is the 1978 Ducati 900 NCR, which powered a certain Mike Hailwood to a TT win in 1978 after an 11 year hiatus.

But ask Honda if they like a level playing field in competition?? You can bet behind the scenes the recent rev limit imposed on the V4 Panigirlie in WSB that the Japanese contenders will be looking for more rule changes to poke another spanner in the Ducati success if the newly imposed rev limit don’t work.

PO BOX 1282 CANBERRA CITY ACT 2601 www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au CDDC adopts a new constitution The 8 April 2019 CDDC special general meeting voted to accept the proposed new club constitution. All present members (except 1) voted to adopt the new constitution. An overwhelming majority and far exceeding the simple majority required for the motion to be passed and then therefore the new constitution to be adopted. A copy of the new constitution has now been sent to the relevant ACT government department being the Community, Industry, Licensing & Trading Section in the Attorney Generals Department. Well done to members who attended and voted in favour of the new constitution.

Several past & present CDDC members have attempted to revise/update the original 1979 CDDC constitution in the past. You’ll notice I said the orig constitution was 1979 and I say this as foundation life member Ian Thompson tells me that the initial formation meeting of the CDDC was in December 1978. So, therefore the constitution drawn up & adopted later was in 1979. Life member Dave Shipley recently told me he attempted to repair/update the orig 1979 constitution about 25yrs ago with no success. So that is a clear indicator of how long the CDDC has been living with an out-of-date constitution that some members considered needed redress. Dave was in reality attempting the impossible as the orig 1979 constitution required a 2/3rds majority on of all paid up members to effect a change. You’d never get that number of total members to a meeting to vote. This too was the issue confronting then Pres Ken Ullman several years ago. Ken too attempted a change but he then thought he was stymied by the 1979 2/3rds rule. Ken’s attempt was certainly well intention and also valiant and in reality he did have the votes to make the change, he just didn’t realise it at the time. Since the passing of the Associations Incorporation ACT 1999, all that is required to effect a change is the majority of members who attend a special meeting. This applies so long as that meeting has been properly notified to members at least 28 days prior to that meeting. That is what happened on Mon the 8th. Well done to those members who voted for change and the CDDC can now be at more ease knowing our constitution is compliant with the 1999 Act and its attached Model Rules. As has been explained previously in different forums, the CDDC is a registered not-for-profit organisation with the ACT govt. This provides the CDDC with registered corporate body status, which means if an action or event we conduct causes injury/harm to another person (or persons) and they seek redress claiming negligence or unlawful action by the CDDC or a CDDC member, they can only sue the CDDC as a body, not individuals within the CDDC. With about $8,000 in the bank accnt, such a person is gonna think seriously as to their winning a claim/case is worthy of the financial cost to themselves. With the previous out-of-date and non- compliant 1979 constitution, a complaining party could claim the CDDC was not covered by the 1999 Act as its constitution was inadequate to attain coverage. It’s a remote risk but the protection is one we should access where we can. ybaf
