Picotte and Ducati make progress at Daytona

More from Pascal Picotte

After the tire test, Picotte enlisted the services of a trainer to help with his sore wrists.

"It's just that I've gotten used to the apehangers on the VR 1000," he said.

Asked if there was any aspect of the VR 1000 he would miss, Picotte said, "Well, I kind of liked saddlebags, but I think the fringes cost us 5 mph on the high banks at Daytona."

Re: More from Pascal Picotte

Poor Pascal, he must be psychologically wounded from those years with Hardley. His relief at being on a Ducati now must be huge.

Gee Whiz, didn't some whacko privateer, Cook Neilsen win on a Ducati sometime in the late jurassic?
