A friend has challenged me to enter the citizen's 19 mile race in Marlboro tomorrow morning, which is apparently sponsored by the Boston Road Club. We know the time and cost, but not the location of registration and race start. Can anyone help? Thanks for any last minute assistance! Regards, David Buffo GUESS::BUFFO or BUFFO::BUFFO

Take 495 to Rt 20(West)
Go Left at 2nd set of lights onto Ames St.
Turn Right onto Forest St at 4-way intersection.
Start/Registration is 1/2 mile or less down the road on Forest St.
Registration for citizens race supposedly closes at 8am (race start
at 9am).
No special gearing necessary for course; there is a mile long uphill
but it's a gradual uphill that we did in the big chainring (53x19)
at about 20mph in the race earlier this season. It would be no problem
with your small chainring and any gear. There is a steep downhill after
the uphill where it would probably be handy to have a 12 or 13 tooth
cog...
It's a fun and relatively safe race. There are only 3 corners per
3.1 mi loop)
