TT Special

Attention all Hailwood Rep owners.
To mark the 30th anniversary of Mike the Bike's famous 1978 TT trampling of Honda and everyone else, the DOC will be presenting a very special award at this year's Glen Maye Rally on Mad Sunday (click here for details).

We are expecting a massive turnout of MHR's in the Island this year, and so have arranged for a superb, once in a lifetime, never likely to be repeated, super-dooper trophy to be awarded to the best Hailwood Replica at the DOC TT rally on Sunday 1st June. Not only this, BUT...

The winner of this trophy will get to take part in the TT Parade lap on Friday 6th June, riding his (or her) award-winning Hailwood Rep alongside the likes of Foggy, Paul Smart and David Hailwood on closed roads as part of Ducati's celebration of Mike the Bike's win. You cannot buy this opportunity!

You can buy the tee-shirt from DOC Regalia (below) though.

Revamped DOCGB Forum

The Forum has now been upgraded to the latest spec, and we have changed the URL at the same time as part of a concerted effort to escape the spam-bots. Users will now need to go to the Memberzone, where they will find links to both the old forum, which can still be viewed, but is closed to new posts, and to the new one, where they will need to re-register.

If any existing contributor to the forum cannot log in to the memberzone for any reason (such as no longer being a DOC member) then please contact the webmaster (email link above) and I will do my best to help with the transition. - Spaggy.
