Record broken for the biggest Ducati Monster Parade


  • A new record: 517 #monster bikes paraded on the #paulricard circuit for the Sunday Ride Classic
  • Previous 2008 record for the most numerous #monster #parade beaten in France
  • The new record marks the start of the #monster 25th anniversary celebrations

Borgo Panigale, #bologna, 29 Match 2018 – A quarter of a century is something to shout about! #ducati set out to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the #monster by bringing together all the enthusiasts and connoisseurs of this iconic bike and putting on the biggest #ducati #monster #parade ever.
 
Organised in France by #ducati West Europe as part of the Sunday Ride Classic motorcycling festival, the #parade saw the participation of an incredible number of Monsters of every type, year and model from all over Europe.

From the first #monster 900 built in 1993 to the very latest #monster 821 made in 2018, no less than 517 #monster motorcycles swarmed onto the “Paul Ricard” circuit at Le Castellet, creating a gigantic, colourful convoy of bikes that set a new record.

Certified by Raphaël Botte, the judiciary official of Bandol (Var, France), the 517 #monster bikes took a lap of the track. They were led by former official #ducati WSBK rider Régis Laconi, who rode ahead of the bunch as, quite literally, the #ducati flag bearer. In all the history of the #monster, nothing like this had ever been seen: which ensured the previous record (established in 2008 by the enthusiasts of the #monster Owners Belgium Club, with 405 bikes) was soundly beaten.
 
In addition to extremely rare models such as one of the very few #monster “Senna” motorcycles and a perfectly preserved #monster Cromo, there was a multitude of customised, personalised Monsters, each more eye-catching than the last: clear confirmation that this #ducati model can be made into something unique, original and even more special.
