From a press release issued by AMA:
AMA VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE DAYS TO CELEBRATE DUCATI
PICKERINGTON, OHIO -- The American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) has
announced that Ducati will be the "Featured Marque" at AMA Vintage
Motorcycle Days 2005, to be held July 15 - 17 at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course
in Lexington, Ohio.
In celebrating the famed Italian marque, AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days 2005
will benefit the Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum and will feature an exhibit
of classic motorcycles and memorabilia.
The "Grand Marshal" of AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days 2005 will be Paul Smart,
winner of the 200 Miles of Imola aboard a Ducati in 1972. Also, special
guest and World Stunt-Riding Champion Christian Pfeiffer will be performing
on his Ducati throughout the event.
The legendary Mid-Ohio circuit will again host American Historic Motorcycle
Racing Association (AHRMA) roadracing throughout the weekend; two days of
AHRMA motocross, plus observed trials and dirt-track racing, also will be on
the schedule. In all, the AHRMA racing events are expected to attract more
than 1,500 competitors.
AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days 2005 also will feature three vintage bike shows;
the traditional all-brands AMA Swapmeet, North America's largest; a slate of
guest speakers, including renowned designer Craig Vetter; demo rides offered
by Ducati, Buell, and Harley-Davidson; an array of vendors featuring new
products from top manufacturers and dealers; the annual Motorcycle Hall of
Fame Auction of motorcycles and memorabilia; a reunion of motocross legends,
in conjunction with the Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum's upcoming "Motocross
America" exhibit; and the return of Tommi Ahvala's "Team Extreme" Trials
Showcase.
This year marks AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days' 11th annual event at Mid-Ohio
Sports Car Course. Motorcycles previously honored with the Featured Marque
distinction include BSA, Honda, Norton, Penton, Vincent, Indian, Spanish
