All over the good world, Ducatisti are donning their big boy pants, wiping down trusty leathers of choice and prepping for the main feature of this year’s back-pocket splurges: The 2023 Ducati Island Experience.
From April 14-16, Team Red enthusiasts both old and young, experienced and green, will come together in commemoration of Bologna’s iconic premium motorcycle brand – and considering Ducati’s also MotoGP’s new triple crown champion, there’s a lot to celebrate.
According to the recent press release coverage, this year’s iteration will run at the MotoGP Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas, where Ducati’s World Champion Francesco Bagnaia and Corse racer Enea Bastianini battle will be present, accompanying the monstrous and beautiful Desmosedici GP hooners.
Perks of attending? There are a lot; from being able to rub elbows with Ducati executives and team members, to the annual test rides of new machines (2023 World Premiere debutantes for this year), to the VIP Velocity Lounge and pit lane access area, the track days and iconic food/fun/memories, Team Red hasn’t held back – nor should they, considering their current perspective on what a Ducati machine should mean to their audience.
“…there is no entry Ferrari, or entry Porsche, so you start with other brands and keep in mind Ducati and then as soon as you can, you buy a Ducati,” shrugs Ducati’s Head of Design, Andrea Ferraresi, in an interview with MCN at EICMA.
You heard the man.
