Ducati John Is Now Know As " Cellier B V T Workshop"

No, I'm Spartacus!

 

Anyone with actual contact with him, may want to suggest a DNS forwarder from the old website so as not to lose the online presence he has already gained.

 

No, I am. Spartacus, that is, not DJ.

 

John said he is not having a website, using Facebook I believe

 

So you are saying that I was part of the management team at that specific time?

Sorry mate, but I was only elected onto the MT after CB stepped down, as well you know.

So no, all that drama was way before my time.

 

I distinctly recall you being a keyboard anarchist at the time (until you sold out and became The Man).

 

May well pre-date your time on the MT but you are well aware of what was going on, I also doubt it does actually pre-date your time on the MT as you were loathe to admit the odious fellow was still involved when you tried to get me to give it another go at the NEC....

Please don't play the innocent, you may not have been complicit but you aren't ignorant of it all.

How is your club and forum doing these days ? Much happening ?

 

Another trip to Italy thanks on new bikes with the Presidents

 

Not sure it passes the Ronseal test, but very best of luck to John

 

So I wasn't a member of the MT then, I was just a member the same as you. And you obviously knew what was going on too as you know so much, but you did nothing either, so does that make you complicit too?

And I never asked you to give anything another go when I saw you last, you asked me (as usual) how the Club is going and I gave you an honest reply. It's the same as now; number change all the time but we're healthy, an official Ducati Club and having a great time.

We've got the Meet The Team night at World Supers at Donington to look forward too, so we'll be sending members to meet Chaz and Alvaro and have a tour of the pits and dinner in hospitality with them. We've also got the same for the MotoGP team at Silverstone too, so dinner with Dovi and Petrux. And we've got tickets to give away for a round of BSB that DUK have donated, along with the official DOC pack and magazines that our members get.

How's the Italian Sporting Club coming along these days? Haven't seen much of your little gang recently?

 

It was awesome! Mugello was fantastic and got to meet loads of new friends I did manage to drop the Multistrada 1260S on the last day though
Mind you, cost me a fortune as it was nearly £1200 this year to go, plus flights, booze and spending cash and that's before I lost 8 days of my day rate as a contractor!
But worth every penny

 

Don't tell them Pike! Apparently I was an insider all along and part of the conspiracy...

 

antonye involved in chaos and stirring? say it aint so

 

Sssshhh... don't blow my cover...

 

I guess if it had been renamed Cellier B L T Workshop he would have a load of problems with Subway or Ginster's .....

 

Probably the tiny one

 

Selective memory my friend, it was my trying to get things changed that got my membership terminated by the then MT, and even after that I was vocal in my support of others that were being vilified and victimised by the then MT, their magic doormat and their outright accusations that a serving member of the MT who was a partner in an accounting firm was in fact trying to defraud them. There was then an effort to oust the MT and this didn't work out and you loty got the club you deserved.

So stop spouting bollocks and enjoy your little power trip.

Your exact words at the NEC were 'Come on Dibs, give it another go, its all changed, I'll get your posting rights reinstated' at that point the friend and also ex DSC member I was with walked off as he couldn't stomach it as you'd also confirmed that CB was still involved but in your words 'was kept a distance from the membership' ..

I see lots of my little gang thanks, have organised in excess of 20 Euro trackday trips for anything up to 24 people at a time, we've been all over the place, and many names you'd recognise that wouldn't pee on your club if it was on fire. Aragon was in May, next is Portimao Nov and then I'll sort our 2020 shenanigans .....

Enjoy the fruits of your labour.

 

That's Yrio from Brazil... standing on a set of scales that were supposed to be used to check the weight for the rides

I'm between him and Sandro in the camo shorts.

 

The funny thing is that when the new committee took over, everyone that was banned on the website was reinstated, yourself included. Even Infallible Andy!
Therefore I wouldn't have said that because you weren't blocked at the time. I probably said, as I have done to a lot of ex-members that I have spoken to, that you would be more than welcome to come back if you want to.

But I'm glad that you're enjoying your little gang
