"As you know, the economic crisis has struck hard everywhere on the planet and in Europe too. The Graveyard Call race is in danger since the race is economically balanced if all the riders who registered come and pay... no benefit!

Right now, only 61 out of 102 riders confirmed their registration and have paid... The organizers need to know who is attending and they NEED your payment NOW. Please email them to tell if you are coming or not.

The event could be canceled if not enough riders have paid or promised to come and pay!!!

"It's named the Graveyard Call because the road ends near the cemetery where a big curve should see most of the riders crash, as in Danger Bay!

The road will be about 2.5 km, but the first 800 meters are an official closed road for downhill training. The french scene is well structured and we managed to get 4 roads regularly closed for us throughout the country! The D173 is one of them.

Argonnay, the village where the race will take place, is near the town of Annecy, french candidate for organizing the Winter Olympics in 2018. The purest natural lake in France!"
