The DOC email addresses have changed. The basic addresses remain unchanged, but the .org suffix should be changed to .net for all future correspondence. As an example the current "someone@docgb.org" address will become "someone@docgb.net" and this will apply to all docgb email adresses. The new addresses have been in use from from 1st September 2009 on, and our old ones have now been discontinued.

The DOC now has a space on Facebook. Click the title above to go there.
We also have a new PRO, in the shape of Gavin Scott-Brooker.

Full contact details are on the Contact Us page.
At the next AGM (2011) there is a strong probability that I will be stepping down as DOC Webmaster. Having done this job for over five years now, all of it extremely enjoyable and rewarding, I think I'm due a break. We will therefore be looking for someone, or ideally a small team, to take over the reins next year. As we want to ensure that succession to this important position is dealt with as seamlessly as possible, I would welcome early contact from anyone who has any interest in taking on the position so that all the relevant issues can be addressed well beforehand.
If you are suffiently experienced in website maintenance and design and want to be considered for the position, and to help out in the interim, please contact Spaggy - Email Webmaster
The DOC is pleased to announce that we have been appointed by the DVLA as the UK authority for officially dating old Ducatis, and can provide the official certificate to owners anxious to avoid the dreaded Q-plate. Click here for full details.

J and L Motorcycles join the Ducati dealer network
Ducati UK are pleased to announce the addition of J and L Motorcycles of Carlisle to the Ducati dealer network.
J and L Motorcycles are extremely proud to have acquired the Ducati franchise and to represent this premium brand. The dealership has invested in factory trained technicians and a fully equipped Ducati service area. The dealership boasts a knowledgeable and enthusiastic sales force eager to assist customers choosing from the latest 2010 model line-up and a wide range of Ducati clothing and accessories.
J and L Motorcycles has been established in Carlisle since 2002 when motorcycling enthusiasts, Laurence Brown and John Kennedy, first opened their doors providing both new and used bike sales and servicing. In 2006 the Dealership expanded, taking on two more franchises and became the largest Motorcycle Dealership in Cumbria and the Scottish Borders.
John Kennedy, Director at J and L Motorcycles Limited enthused, “We are looking forward to introducing both new and established customers to the Ducati range. We have a wealth of experience and knowledge and our staff all have a passion for the Ducati brand. We are excited to be able to further enhance our profile as a premier motorcycle centre with the introduction of Ducati to our Dealership”.
Andy Simpson, Dealer Development Manager, commented on the new appointment, “Ducati is always looking for dealers with a special mix of qualities and which allow a dealership to develop strong relationships with Ducati owners and with us at Ducati. I am pleased to say that John and Lawrence have instilled a very welcoming and professional ethic at J&L Motorcycles. It is these qualities and the undoubted enthusiasm for the Ducati brand which has convinced us of the great job that the J&L team will do for current and future Ducati owners in the area.”
