Memorial Fund Established For 'Dang'
Cycle News Staff | July 11, 2023
Road2Recovery has established a memorial fund to honor Chris “Dang” McAvoy.
McAvoy was the District Sales Manager, PG&A for KTM Corporation and was the Yamaha of Troy Team Manager in the 2000s, helping guide the team to the 2008 AMA West Region Supercross Championship with rider Jason Lawrence. McAvoy, who reportedly took his own life, leaves behind a young daughter.
Road2Rocovery said, “This memorial fund has been established in his name to support his beloved daughter’s needs during his absence. The fund aims to provide financial assistance to ensure her well-being and help to fulfill her dreams.”
Furthermore, members of the motocross community, industry friends and family are joining forces to announce the first annual Dang Memorial Charity Golf Tournament. It is scheduled to coincide with the Pro Motocross Championship Hangtown Motocross Classic in Sacramento, California, in the summer of 2024.
For immediate information on the golf tournament in 2024, please contact Clifton Campbell at cliffy39@gmail.com
