Invitation
Due to the worsening of the coronavirus epidemic, and taking into account the government measures issued, the Nógrád Grand Prix will not be held at the time originally scheduled.
This applies to the 3-day individual event, the night race and the 3x3 relay.
Thank you again for the large number of entries you. Thank you for your understanding.
To decide to held the event on a possible later date make sense only after the situation has normalized.
In the meantime, please be patient.
