ORETI BEACH RACES. Quite a few of our riders are preparing their machines for the Southland Club’s beach races on Saturday, February 16, and as there are several fast bikes down south it behoves the local men to look to their laurels and uphold the honour of their club. MONTHLY MEETINGS. All motor cyclists are reminded that the monthly meeting of the cycle section is held on the third Tuesday of each month at 8 p.m., and any motor cyclist wishing to discuss any _ matter concerning motor cycling is cordially invited to come along and do so. Supper is provided, and all those interested are assured, of an enjoyable evening.
