Press Conference: Australian Team in Gruelling 10,000kms Dakar Rally Race

Please come along to a Dakar Rally night presentation, the only event held in Australia before the 10,000km race begins on January 6, 2008.
Crossing the north-western coast of Africa, it's a unique event, one which attracts competitors from more than 40 countries around the world. The race, televised in more than 185 countries attracts in excess of 150 million viewers worldwide. It's the world's toughest off-road rally - only 50% of motorcyclists finish the course each year.

In 2008, Australia's best privateer team is joining the field in an endeavour to capture the wonder of the event and bring its inspirational stories back home to Australia. To do this, there will be a live interactive website and multiple SBS and FoxSports broadcasts.
During the evening, the 2007 Dakar Race Motorcycle will be on display, there will be information about Christophe Barriere-Varju upcoming book, The Business Racer: Seventh Gear and discussions about the creation of a documentary exploring the parallel lives between Dakar competitors and the local African people.
Essentially, it will be an evening about dreams and potential - encapsulated in risk, passion and success.
Only 150 seats are available. Could you please be kind enough to RSVP Yes/No (info at cbvracing.com) so we can make the appropriate drink and nibble arrangements.
Companies interested in sponsorship opportunities and media are welcome.
