Calleva race website is on.

It's still draft version and will be modified before a public announcement, but it's there and it works! We decided to base it on Google blog (again). It's free and easy, so we can spend more money on races and gear. If you follow our blog, please, send your comments and we'll try to improve the new blog. The link to the race blog is also on the top menu. The "How to..." section is postponed for now.
