Cupertino, Calif. (June 24, 2009) – In cooperation with Ducati North America, the New England Ducati Desmo Owners Club is proud to announce the inaugural Passport Rally.
Beginning July 3, interested participants can pick up a rally-specific passport at any northeastern Ducati dealership and start riding. This exciting rally is a great opportunity for Ducati owners and enthusiasts to obtain passport stamps at events and dealerships throughout New England. The Passport Rally is open to all registered New England Desmo Owners Club members and up to three additional guest riders. Each participant is encouraged to visit at least five participating dealerships or events to gather passport stamps. Rally passport stamps can be obtained at each of the following events:
