the city is taking away are riding place!

[400ex#18]

I am from pittsfield, ma, and there is not really anywhere here to ride. We have one place that is actually just like southwick, and now the city is going to take that from us. It is owned by a constuction company, and people have been riding there for over 50 years. Neighbors have been complaining cause the few *******s who ride up and down the streets really fast to get there. Now we have to suffer, or ride anyways, and get hour machines taken away! isn't this some bull ****!

You might be suprised. Bring everyone you can and be respectful.

[shiftybone22]

i went riding there a few times but that was back in 1999 and 2000. so its not ok to ride there anymore?

[400ex#18]
