THE VICTORIOUS TRIUMPH.
■WONDERFUL RECORD OF SUCCESSES ON TRIUMPH MOTOR CYCLES. WELLINGTON TO NAPIER IN G HOURS 38 MINUTES. At the H.B. Motor Cycle Chib’s sports, held on the Hastings Racecourse on Boxing Day, the Triumphs again practically swept/-the board. Out of an entry' of 12 machines, representing five different makes, the Triumphs secured 10 firsts. 7 seconds, and 4 thirds out of a possible eleven events. This performance is all the more remarkable when it is considered that the Triumphs had to concede large handicaps to machines oi equal power, and six of the ten first machines were ridden by amateur riders. On Saturday, Dec. 30th, Mr. J. L. Brathwaite left for Wellington on his Triumph motor cycle to make an attempt on the existing figures of the Wellington to Napier record—viz., 8 hours 35 minutes, established by Mr. H. L. Schaeffer on New Year’s Day, 1909, also on a Triumph. In spite of several attempts on other makes of machines, this record has stood to the credit of the Triumph for three years. Mr. Brathwaite left the Wellington Day, and arrived at the Napier Post Office at 10.57 a.m., his time being 6 hours 38 minutes, lowering the previous record by nearly two hours. The Triumph ran perfectly from start to finish, the only two stops being to take in petrol and oil. It is only perfect machines, made from the finest material procurable, that can average 33) miles an hour over 230 miles of New Zealand roads. Those who' were at the Napier Post Office at the finish con’d not help but remark on the pertecr condition of the machine at the finish. The Triumph is not only made for speed. It has proved itself to be the machine for hard work and long wear, and is perfectly adapted to New Zealand roads. Vv e can deliver both fixed and free engine models from stock, and would be pleased to give trial runs to intending purchasers at all times. —Tourist Motor Co., Ltd., sole agents for Triumph and B.S.A. motor cycles, Wairariipa.
