TRIUMPH AND B.S.A. SWEEP THE BOARD AGAIN.
At the Nortn Canterbury Motor Cyclists' Dlub's beach race meeting at NewBrighton on Saturday last there were two events. The first was a4B miles race. This was won by W. Hollobon (Triumph). Second place was filled by C. Bonnington (Trumph). Both these riders are amateurs. Fastest time was put up by F. Howarth (Triumph), who filled third place. The second event was a side-car race over l(y miles. J. H. Michael (8.5.A.) won the race. O. Bonnigton (Triumph) second, and 6. B. Brown (Triumph) made fastest time for single cylinder machine. Michael's win was particularly meritorious, as his sidecar tyre punctured four miles from home. He stopped and removed the tyre, finishing on the rim. The magnificent performance of the Triumph and B.S.A. in the club's three days' trials in December will still be fresh in the memories of motorists. The latest successes prove that neither th~e Triumph nor B.S.A. flukes its victories. They can always repeat their performances. The side-car successes prove what we have always maintained: that the 3£ and 4 h.p. single cylinder machine has plenty of power for side-car work. There were twin cylinder machines in both events on Saturday. Call and 6ee the new 1914 Triumphs and B.S.A.'s. ADAMS, LTD.. Agents, Triumph and B.S.A.'s.
