Paolo Pirozzi, Chairman of the Ducati Dreams Club in Naples, has for
many years dreamed of making a solo round-the-world trip on a Ducati.
Today, Ducati has finally made that dream come true. On 13th June, in
fact, at World Ducati Week, Paolo began his long-awaited round-the-world
adventure on a Ducati Multistrada 1200.
He calls it a flight and he is no stranger to this kind of experience.
October 25th 2009, he has celebrated his first 300.000 km and he has
already completed a Paris to Beijing tour, also on a Ducati, the old
Multistrada 620, thanks to the Overland television programme.
Paolo has planned a 90,000 km route, which will take him from Europe to
Russia, from Asia to Australia and then on to America and North Africa,
ending up back in Borgo Panigale.
Ducati is supporting this young Ducatista providing him with a brand new
Multistrada 1200 Touring Edition, but the Ducati Community is taking
care of everything else. Official Ducati Owners Clubs around the world,
infact, are preparing to welcome Paolo at various points during his
journey.
Paolo's dream follows in the footsteps of many who have gone before him
and that is precisely why he has decided to travel without the aid of
satellite navigation. His will be a truly solo adventure, along the
countless roads of the world in search of a passion, the one for Ducati,
and for people who for him are synonymous with family.
Paolo is going solo on this incredible voyage but every Ducatista is with him in spirit.
