The Ducati Owners Club of Victoria, Australia was formed in March 1976 by a group of enthusiastic and friendly Ducati owners who shared a passion for their motorcycles. Since that first meeting, the Club has developed into an organisation of around 400 members who all share that same passion for their beloved Ducatis.
The Club caters for bikes from all eras. While many members own modern day Ducatis, there are still a lot of the older and rarer bikes tucked away in garages, sheds and the odd lounge room. The more modern bikes get out and about on the regular DOCV organised rides (usually at least one a month) to the various motorcycle friendly roads around Melbourne and it's environs while the older bikes, many with club plates, appear on occasions such as the Italian motorcycle concourse or the annual ‘Bevelution’ ride… specifically for the old bikes – it’s a sight and sound to behold!
The Club also conducts a few 'fun-days’ each year at the very popular Phillip Island. These days are possibly the best organised of any track days. With a maximum of thirty five bikes on the track at any one time and around one hundred bikes in total, it makes for plenty of actual track time. But don’t forget the best bit; we’re all Ducati nuts!
