😲 I started riding a Ducati at about the age of 2, strapped to the back of my dad’s with a terrycloth bathrobe belt (and took plenty of naps back there too, while my dad used his elbows to keep my helmet centered on his back). So of course my first street bike when I turned 16 had to be a Ducati, which I still have. I was about to trade in my beloved KTM dirt bike for a Beta to give that a whirl, but this could get interesting :-)
