Hi, after many years riding I finally took the plunge and bought myself a Ducati Monster 1100 Evo (2012). Decided on the Monster as I'm too old for the sports bikes so a naked was the obvious choice. After 3 months with it I must say, it puts a smile on my face every time I take it out. Well, almost, as I seem to have a problem with it starting when it's warm i.e. it won't, so I have to wait 20 mins or so and it then starts fine. Anyone else have similar problem?

If there are any other riders from the Gloucestershire area I'd love to meet up.

Cheers.

Steve

Hi rollo22,

That's a nice ride out from Glos. I was out yesterday on one of my favourite rides (Glos - Ledbury - Ross - Monmouth - Tintern - Forest - Glos). Managed to time it quite well as there was little traffic on the 'interesting' roads :-)

Is there a big Ducati community around this area or do you meet up with all comers?
