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!!!
