The visual power of this is incredible. Just picturing 'Borgo Panigale red' flowing through the streets of 70 countries at the same moment gives me chills. Italian red meeting the red of the giant Tengu mask in Hamamatsu — I love the location choice there. This is what motorcycle events are really about at their core: the pure joy of belonging. That aerial shot spelling out '100' in riders — that's culture, plain and simple.

Ducatisti all over the world riding on the same day — as a way to stage brand unity, this is a fantastic idea.

So #WeRideAsOne is actually an annual event — I had no idea it's already up to its 5th edition.

Having a global simultaneous event like this on top of WDW shows just how much energy Ducati is putting into the 100th anniversary.

A 'global simultaneous ride' won't actually be simultaneous once you factor in time zones, so I'm curious what time each region actually holds it.

In practice it's probably a format where each region rides at whatever time suits them and posts photos to social media.

In Japan, it was a joint event with 108 bikes across the Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, and Okazaki stores — a community-rooted joint format is a nice idea.

Holding it in the Shizuoka area, close to the birthplace of Hamamatsu, feels symbolic for the 100th anniversary.

Over 70 countries, more than 22,000 people — growing to this scale by just the 5th edition, it makes total sense the 100th-anniversary year would be the biggest yet.
