2016 Ducati Riding Experience
Take your pick: Mugello or Misano, and Aussie two-time world supersport champion Andrew Pitt could be one of your instructors. But you do have to travel… There's also a new enduro-based tuitionThe Ducati Riding Experience (DRE) returns in 2016 for the 14th consecutive year, and includes a new feature — the DRE Enduro for off-road tuition on the new Multistrada 1200 Enduro.
The DRE Enduro school will be held at the Castello Nipozzano in Pelago, with course dates, information and booking methods available from March.
Meanwhile, the traditional road-based courses will be held on the following dates:
- May 4-6: Mugello
- June 6-8: Misano
- September 5-7: Mugello
The DRE offers structured courses for every experience level, and in 2016 Ducati has increased the number of track sessions for the Track Master and Champs Academy courses. In addition, those taking part in the two courses will also be able to benefit from a data acquisition service, thanks to the DDA (Ducati Data Analyzer) mounted on all bikes used for courses. A specialist technician will be available to support participants.
The new Ducati bikes available to customers include the Panigale R, 959 Panigale, Hypermotard 939, Hyperstrada 939, Monster 1200 and Monster 1200 R.
All participants in DRE 2016 can hire technical clothing to suit the particular course.
Instructors confirmed for 2016 include Carlos Checa, Michele Pirro, Manuel Poggiali, Paolo Casoli and Australian Andrew Pitt.
