New England Cycle Racing Association Forms to Limit Pacing Width
A New England meeting in New York at Langham Hotel, attended by about 35 racing men, pacemakers, managers and enthusiasts, formed the New England Cycle Racing Association. They adopted 16 inches as too wide for pacing machines and endorsed a circuit of no more than 12 inches in width. They plan to approach Providence Revere and Charles River tracks to use shorter paced machines and tandems, arguing 16 inches is unsafe. The group agreed to press Southern tracks to support their plan and adjourned to reconvene Friday evening.
