BUSINESS AND PLEASURE.
Of the many different types of people that use motor-cycles for various purposes, it can be said that all are imbued, to some extent, with the sporting spirit of the pastime. This statement may at first sight appear an exaggeration, but a closer analysis will show that it is substantially correct. That it is true of the sporting rider who competes in reliability events and speed trials is obvious; but even the motor cyclist who uses his machine mainly for business or utility purposes cannot deny that the sporting side of the pastime makes an appeal. With the exception of the British, few, if any, people can claim that they combine sport and business in satisfactory proportions, and perhaps this is the reason why Britain leads the world as far as the motor-cycle trade is concerned.
