556.0. "Mountain Bike Racing" by SCOMAN::DESHARNAIS () Fri Feb 26 1988 11:35

    Does anyone know of any organizations that hold mountain bike races
    in New England?  I was wondering if there would be any schedules
    available that list races for the season.
    
    Also, while we're on the subject of mountain bike racing, are there
    special requirements for a RACING ATB, such as frame geometries,
    shift components, etc.  Can anyone recommend any a good racing mountain
    bikes?
    
    Thanks,
    Denis

    	I seem to recall, while browsing through the current issue of
    	Mountain Biking, a schedule of National events, at least one
    	of which was in New England. I don't own the magazine, but
    	I'll see if I can get the date and place of the event(s).

    BACK IN JUNE. IF YOU'RE LOOKING TO RACE YOU MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER A

    SEPTEMBER 17 AT 9AM. IT'S A RACE TO BENEFIT THE MUSCULAR DISTROPHY
    ASSOCIATION. PARTICIPANT GET A FREE BARBECUE LUNCH. IT'S A GOOD TIME,
    AND A GOOD CAUSE.
