Amended 28-01-10 by CJ:Over the past few days I've been researching the background to this event and I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Ronnie again for posting his original topic.
This '3 Days Of Thunder' track weekend, which is being held on the TT Circuit Assen, looks like it will be one of the main highlights of UKBEG's 2010 events season.
Organised by the Dutch Ducati Club, the event caters mainly for Italian motorcycles but will include races featuring liquid-cooled Buell 1125RR's, 1125R's, 1190RR's and air-cooled tube-framed models. The German Pegasus Buell race team will be there in force with their new 1190RR's (bought from Erik Buell Racing) competing in rounds 3 and 4 of the Sound of Thunder race series.
If this weekend in Assen tickles your fancy and you'd like to be part of the small, but perfectly formed UKBEG group that's attending this event, please contact us for booking details.
