BIRTHDAY SURPRISE FOR MURDOCH
15 September 2006 - Ducati Marlboro Team
Motorcycle fanatic Lachlan Murdoch rode three laps of the high-speed Phillip Island track this afternoon aboard the Ducati Marlboro Team Desmosedici two-seater.
The ride, behind former GP winner Randy Mamola, was a 35th birthday present arranged by his wife Sarah. ''It was excitement all the way, I enjoyed it a lot,'' said Murdoch, who rides on the street and the racetrack. ''Randy was a fantastic rider but it''s hard to put my feelings into words. You don''t realise the performance of these bikes, especially the braking, until you''ve been on them. It was a wonderful birthday present, so thanks to my wife and everyone involved.'' Murdoch, based in Sydney, rides a Ducati 996SPS on the street. He has ridden several racetracks including Laguna Seca and Willow Springs in the States and Australia''s Eastern Creek.
