The location for the EMM this year is the Massif Central arriving on the 22nd June and departing on the 24th. There are two days of ride outs and whilst it's not totally exclusive to Ducati Multistradas there is a beer tax if you arrive on a different bike! Some rooms are being held, if you are interested there is a €50 (£44) deposit to pay, which might be refundable if it's not too close to the event. Some of the other forum members will going and it's a great event. (Unless you are unlucky like @Bumpkin) Overview The European Multistrada Meeting is the definitive event for Ducati Multistrada owners, now celebrating its 19th year. Well, another year has slipped by and here we are in 2026. This year, the EMM heads to the Massif Central in France — a region many of us have ridden through, but rarely taken the time to properly enjoy. To be honest, it’s one of the most underrated riding areas in Europe. While it may not have the drama of high alpine passes, it more than makes up for it with fantastic roads, very light traffic, and — perhaps most importantly — it’s highly unlikely to snow while we’re there. For 2026 we’ll be based at the Mildiss Hotel in Besse-et-Saint-Anastaise, perfectly positioned at the heart of the best riding in the region. It’s widely regarded as the best hotel in the area, offering great views, a terrace to unwind on after a day’s riding, and an excellent restaurant. EMM 2026 is shaping up to be a great event. Looking forward to seeing everyone there. ️ Full Info and booking here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/emm2026-tickets-1980549400572?aff=oddtdtcreator
To be fair it was still a great event followed by an altogether different adventure on the way home...
