8 comment(s)
Ducati and Lamborghini, Italian companies part of Audi AG group, have celebrated a milestone with their joint social project âDual Education System Italy,â which has been created in cooperation with the Volkswagen Workforce Foundation, the Italian Ministry for Teaching, Universities and Research, and the Ministry of Education of the region Emilia Romagna. The two companies are enabling young Italians, largely from socially disadvantaged families, to take the next important step of their dual education and training based on the German system. Following the first component of education in a college, the young people are now starting their practical training. For this purpose, Lamborghini and Ducati have set up modern training centers in their plants.
Since September 2014, Ducati and Lamborghini have been developing a new process for education and training in Italy. In cooperation with the two colleges Fioravanti Belluzzi and Aldini Valeriani in Bologna, the companies have established a two-year-joint education and training plan for 48 young people, in order to establish a dual concept between college and company. The program is primarily aimed at socially disadvantaged young people. At the start of the first practical phase at the Ducati and Lamborghini plants, the Board of Management Member for Human Resources at AUDI AG, Thomas Sigi, and the Board of Management Member for Sales and Marketing at AUDI AG, Luca de Meo, visited the new classrooms accompanied by Ducati Motor Holding CEO Claudio Domenicali and Lamborghini President and CEO Stephan Winkelmann.

Bikes prohibited on roads in Almaty
|
3 comment(s)
City authorities in Almaty, the largest city in Kazakhstan, have declared bikes âillegalâ.
The main roads of the city have been equipped with road signs prohibiting bikes from passage. Although this is not a recent development, and actually came into effect about six months ago, bikers have been growing increasingly worried about it, since they cannot seem to get an explanation for why their rights are being violated.
A huge number of road signs prohibiting bikes on the roads were installed last winter.

Vyacheslav Voronovich from Lvov (Ukraine) has been into motorcycles since high school, and he rode an iron horse for the first time in seventh grade.
âIt was precisely at that time as a kid that I started dreaming about having a bike of my own, but I never had the opportunity. Yet, my interest in motorcycles never actually subsided; it just became deeper and deeper. At the same time, I enjoyed wood carving and making various wooden artifacts. I was â and am to this day â particularly fond of miniature handmade articles,â Vyacheslav says.

Andrey Urzhumtsev finishes his motorcycle rally across Africa
Africa is an amazing continent full of mysteries and adventures. It harbors both equatorial, evergreen rainforests and the planetâs largest desert, the Sahara. When it's pouring in one part of the continent, the other part is consumed by everlasting drought. Yet, the weather is by far not the main obstacle in covering thousands of kilometers. It is vital that you pay close attention and fully grasp Africaâs mysterious culture in order to be comfortable on its territory.
Andrey Urzhumtsev, a Russian businessman who happens to be into unique motorcycle tours, ventured on a solo rally across Africa in September 2010. To carry him across the continent, Andrey chose the BMW GS 1200 Adventure rigged out with a built-in camera system that captured the entire historic event.
