Il Cucciolo — June 3, 2007
 

Ducati sent its Mascot, Il Cucciolo, on an around-the-world "odyssey" of photo-ops. The idea was for local Desmo Owners Clubs around the world to take pictures of the Cucciolo in their local environs. When it came to Houston we gave it some fancy western duds and set out to take some pictures. Here is what we got.
 
For those who don't know, the original Cucciolo was Ducati's first bike—a motorized bicycle. The first two pictures below should help explain what it's all about. Click on the pictures for larger versions. The links below certain pictures will display the original 2.2 MB camera image.
