Saturday, October 10, 2009, could not have been a more perfect day to witness the unveiling of the new Museum of Springfield History in Springfield, Massachusetts. At the heart of this first-class museum are three incredible galleries: the Indian Motocycle collection, with over 30 of the best selections of Indian motorcycles in the world; a premier gun collection, with many of the finest examples of Smith & Wesson firearms ever produced; and some of the best Springfield automobiles ever assembled, including an exact replica of the very first automobile in America, the Duryea, invented in downtown Springfield in 1893. Each gallery shows what a profound impact the Springfield area had on our nation, and the world, as an industrial hub during the 19th and 20th centuries.

“Just keep breathing and ride a motorcycle”

That’s what Freddie Marsh (1900-2003) would tell people who inquired about his secret to longevity. A legendary hill climb, motocross and flat-track racer, Freddie Marsh was a longtime Indian-then-Moto Guzzi dealer here in Connecticut. Local lore has it he carried the largest inventory of Indian motorcycle parts in America at one point. A fierce competitor known as “Demon,” Freddie never got accustomed to personal praise. In fact, he would have been the first to tell you that dumb luck had more to do with him winning the Northeast Amateur Championship in the 1920s than anything. The kill switch on his bike busted, so he had no choice but to corner the track full throttle. Those were the days when racers relied on their kill switches to slow their bikes in the corners… before throttle control and when brakes were not allowed.
