Trying to figure out if it's worth loading up the Panigale for Austin. I know Laguna Seca had "bike only" lanes into the track, as well as Cannery Row. Does Austin have anything similar or is it a waste to ride while there?
Not sure but the good people at Ducati Austin would probably have the lowdown on all of this as well as all of Ducati events going on. http://www.motoaustin.com/
For one thing, you get the closest FREE parking if you ride there. I know there is Ducati Island...but, i know they had all the Ducati's parked near the tower area inside the actual facilities the past three years. Just not sure if that was free for all the Ducati riders or the Ducati Experience paid riders. Either way...it's a win win when on the bike.
Ducati Island will work if you're on a Duc, no need to pay extra extra for the parking. Only if they're doing their own grandstand in which case you gave to pay for seats.
