past and present synonymous with the TT and Ducati’s
racing history, including the Ducati legend himself
- Carl Fogarty. Both Pauline and David will

tickets will go to riders’ charities Riders

David
Hailwood will have a trade stand for his new venture
Hailwood Motorcycle Restorations Ltd. (HMR) behind
the grandstand at the forthcoming Isle of Man
TT 2008. So do make a point of going to visit
them. Dave and Pauline will be there most of the
time from the 4th - 7th or 8th June inclusive,
or longer if rain delays the racing.
Dave will also be riding in Friday’s Ducati
Parade Lap, which will be started by Pauline.
It looks like being a great event for all Ducati
fans and we look forward to seeing you there.

Ducati
at the TT 2008
The first and most long-established is the Mad
Sunday TT Rally, held at the Waterfall Hotel,
Glen Maye, from 11 am onwards. We usually have
sunstroke weather, regalia on sale, and prizes
for best bike in three categories, so get the
Solvol out. The 2008 event is scheduled for Sunday
1st June.
For this year only, though, we have something
very special, so attention all Hailwood Rep owners.
This year, to mark the 30th anniversary of Mike
the Bike's brilliant 1978 F1 win, there will be
a very special award for the best Hailwood Replica
at the DOC TT rally on Sunday 1st June. This will
be a one-off, stupendous trophy that will be treasured
by the winner forever, so if you have an MHR,
you owe it to yourself to be there.
Not only this,
BUT...
The winner of this trophy will also get to take
part in the TT Classic 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 epic 1978 TT win.
You cannot buy
this opportunity!
For any Hailwood Rep owner to be in with a chance
of winning this special lap they have to be at
Glen Maye on Mad Sunday, and still in the Island
on Friday the 6th June. If he/she is not then
the owner will regret it for the rest of his or
her life!
On the Tuesday of race week, we have our annual
TT Barbeque, at the Shore Hotel, Laxey. We hope
to avoid last year's cock-up, which resulted in
there being no Barby at the BBQ. This starts at
around 7 PM, and goes on until chucking out time.
For 2008 the date is June 3rd .
