Saturday August 28  party at the Landshark pub on Broad Ripple

Is this a whole-bar-rented-out-exclusive event, or is the Duc party in addition to allowing the regular crowd?


///probably still going either way, just curious for a few friends that might go too...

[Desmocrat]

I think they should do as has been done in the past, before the recent trend of showing proof on paper that you own a Duc, and require people to show just their key to get in.

 No we just reserved a couple of VIP tables.  everyone can go just gonna have sit in line if there's one. I'm still working on details.

///probably still going either way, just curious for a few friends that might go too...

Open Bar as usual we are just getting a couple of VIP tables still working on the details.

[DucLeone]

I may be changing the location of the Club party from Land Sharks to Rock Lobster.

Anybody needing a place to stay is welcome at Casa de Sarge (Patrick's apartment).  Liz moved into her new house and now it's just myself and my two bitches (labs), so there is extra room for some HooHoos.  I have plenty of parking as well as a garage available and am less than 5 minutes north of Indy Duc on Michigan Road (106th Street and Michigan Road).  First come, first serve with the exception of El Presidente, lol.

Nicky Hayden to be Grand Marshall of Lucas Oil Indy Mile AMA Pro Grand National Event.
2006 MotoGP champion Nicky Hayden returns to his AMA flat track roots at the Lucas Oil Indy Mile August 28th at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. 
(INDIANAPOLIS)  Nicky Hayden will be the Grand Marshall of the Lucas Oil Indy Mile AMA Pro K&N Grand National Championship presented by Motorcycle-Superstore.com Series event on Saturday, August 28, 2010.  Hayden, in Indianapolis to ride his Ducati in the RedBull Indianapolis GP at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, will travel across town to the legendary Indy Mile at the Indiana State Fairgrounds to meet the thousands of dirt-track fans who will gather to watch the “Crown Jewel” of flat track motorcycle racing.  Hayden, 29, from nearby Owensboro, Kentucky is known worldwide as the “Kentucky Kid”.  Hayden achieved early career success on the dirt tracks of America.   He is currently in his eighth season in the internationally acclaimed MotoGP World Championship  riding for Ducati.  He made history when he won the world championship in MotoGP in just his fourth season in 2006. 
At the Lucas Oil Indy Mile, Hayden will find highly competitive Ducati brethren. In May of 2010, a Ducati-powered machine ridden by Joe Kopp won its first flat track mile ending 17 years of Grand National Twins domination by Harley Davidson.  The Lloyd Brothers Motorsports Ducati Flat Track Project first brought the Italian engine to the Lucas Oil Indy Mile in 2009 with Larry Pegram aboard. With Nicky Hayden’s appearance, Ducati has extra incentive to repeat the Joe Kopp triumph and go for a Grand National Twins win.   
  The announcement of Nicky Hayden becoming the Lucas Oil Indy Mile Grand Marshall is made in honor of Nicky’s outstanding motorcycle racing career.  Riding since 3 years old, racing since five and winning fifteen amateur titles, Nicky made motorcycle racing his professional career in 1997.  It was at the Indy Mile in 1999 when he picked up the prestigious Ricky Graham Rookie of the Year award from the AMA Pro Grand National series.  That year he was also named the AMA/Speedvision Athlete of the Year for his remarkably successful season competing in three different AMA classes.  With a limited dirt track racing career, Nicky has won a total of six Grand National Championship races on Short Track, TT and Half-Mile race tracks.
While coming up through the dirt track ranks, Nicky’s eyes were set on a full time road race career. Nicky has 17 AMA Pro Racing Superbike wins, 2002 Superbike Champion, 6 AMA Pro Racing Supersport wins, 1999 Supersport Champion, 5 AMA Pro Racing Superstock wins, 1998 Superstock Champion and 7 AMA Pro Racing Formula Extreme wins. 
In 1993 after a successful dirt track and road race career in the U.S., Nicky turned his focus to the World MotoGP Championship series. Nicky has 3 MotoGP (confirm!) wins and became the MotoGP World Champion in 2006.
“We’re honored to have a U.S. and World Champion such as Nicky Hayden serve as Grand Marshal”, said Mike Moore, president of The Promotion Company-Family Events, producers of the Lucas Oil Indy Mile.  “It’s a fitting tribute Nicky’s many accomplishments, especially here at the legendary Lucas Oil Indy Mile where he was first honored as a rookie”, Moore said.
