Indian-bikes-jpgBack-in-1913-one-of-the-importa

Back in 1913 one of the important Sunday afternoon pastimes was watching the motorcycle races at the old fairground at Dorr Street and Upton Avenue. Excitement reached a high pitch each time the referee and judges lined up contestants at the starting line. Dust clouds filled the air behind the contestants as they rounded the turns at the old fairgrounds track as the early "flying machines" soared along the oval track in front of large crowds gathered to watch the races. This photo has been preserved by Lou Klewer, Blade Outdoors editor.
