RECORDS BROKEN - ON A MATCHLESS. In Wellington":M.C.C. hill climb last week a h.p. Matchless wiped the fioor with every other machine" opposed to' it. The course was one on which steer horse-power would tell, being perfectly straight and excessively steep. The report says:—''ln all heats and the final the Matchless started like a shot irom a gun, and completely outclassed everything, up to and including all the 7 h.p. machines. - It made fastest time of the day and record for the hill." This is the fourth successive •vvin in the North Island in four competitions, a side car trial, two hill climbs, and a race on the flat. Be it noted that no other 3£ hp. motor cycle got anywhere near the Matchless in the Wellington hill climb, the next fastest machines being of foreign make, with engines more than twice as large as the Matchless.
