'DUCATI' - some adrenaline added

Running some short of Adrenaline in the veins!!! Do visit ‘DUCATI’ at Gurgaon who are now open. World’s leading producer of racing motorcycles ‘DUCATI’ is finally here at the close proximity of Delhi with their second Showroom just after Mumbai. It shouted it’s presence on 18^th December 2009 with the visit of ‘Nicky Hayden’, former MotoGP champion.

Time is proving that India has a very good potential for the ‘SUPER BIKES’, with the launch of world’s leading producer of racing motorcycles ‘DUCATI’ we got another official range of super bikes. Company has bigger plans for India and they are planning to bring a wide range of bikes as well as accessories.

This weekend I managed to visit there and captured some of the ducauties in my lens and would love to thank Aryan and Addy for their company and of course for the 100mm.:-)
