We Ride As One 2026

Celebrate being a Ducatista with this worldwide ride

This year is different: Ducati turns 100. On May 9, Ducatisti around the world will ride side by side in one global parade for one century of passion.

#WeRideAsOne is the first shared moment of celebration in Ducati’s centenary year, paving the way for World Ducati Week in Misano, July 3-5.

Important Note: we are over capacity for lunch at Ducati Newport Beach on May 9, but please join us in any case for the ride and the party, where we’ll have giveaways and other perks for members. RSVP below so that we can best organize the ride in a safe way.

Bring your Ducati and join us for the biggest We Ride As One in history: a long snake of Ducati bikes painting the most evocative roads of Orange County before arriving at Ducati Newport Beach.
