143.0. "BMX Races - Where? When?" by JOKUR::BOICE (Jim @LJO1 Standards and Methods Control) Tue Sep 02 1986 13:15

    Does anyone know where and when kid's BMX races are held in the 
    Boston area (western suburbs, preferably)?  We gave our son a bike
    for his birthday and he's itching to see what happens.

143.1	Try Northborough	EUREKA::REG_B	Bicycle break-dancer	`Tue Sep 02 1986 18:21`	9
	There is a place in Northborough on Rte #20, I think its called, "Everymans' Bike shop", or something like that. They have a track out back and there seems to be some action there most saturdays. Try Worcester yellow pages for a bicycle shop with a name something like this, then call for a schedule. Reg

	There's also a track in Hopkinton, I've ridden by it several times. I don't know who runs it or what. CdH
143.3	Hopkinton BMX Track	JOKUR::BOICE	Jim @LJO1 Standards and Methods Control	`Wed Sep 03 1986 19:51`	10
	.1 Thanks for the Northboro lead. I'll check it out. .2 I just heard about the Hopkinton track today. The Framingham YMCA owns it, but only uses it for their summer camp program. I spoke to a Kevin Quinn from the Y this morning. He said anyone is welcome to ride there. It's on Clinton Street off of East Main street. Thanks, Jim

	I know there is a lot of active BMX racing in the area. Several people I have met at BRC in Newton, MA started out in BMX, and talked about those races. I don't personally know the names of additional contacts, but I'm sure they are there. Did you check the Friday "What's Happening" section in the Boston Globe? Chuck
