MORE " TRIUMPH" VICTORIES.
The noteworthy feature of last Saturday's beach racing at New Brigton was the consistent ana unanimous manner, so to speak, in which the Triumph riders beat all other single-cylinder competitors, putting up the fastest singlecylinder times m each event. In the 16 Miles Handicap, G. B. Brown was placed second and made fastest singlecylinder time, l'inin 53<iec. In the 24 Miles Race, F. Eaworth was placed
first and covered tho distance remarkably fast time of 25ruin 'Jbscc, tiie fastest single-cylinder time. J- , - Bonnington was second, covering *b° distance in 2Smin Bsec, a very fine performance for a 15-stone rider. «• B. Brown gained second fastest single-cylinder t : Tne in this event. In the Eight Mil© Sdc-car event, F. Haworth was placed second, and made fastest single-cylinder time, lOmin 29.1-osec, being only beaten on time by a 5-6 h.p. twin cylinder machine by the narrow margin of 5 1-osec. G. B. Brown ran fnto third place and made second fastest singlc-cvlinder time —llmin 16sec. The new Triumphs are now to hand, ex Corinthic and Remuera, and orders can be promptly filled. The above performances are sufficient, even if.they were not the last of a long, long, line of similar successes, to demonstrate the truth of our claim that the Triumph for speed, power, efficiency, and reliability, is unequalled by any other 3£ h.p." single cylinder machine on the market. Tho side-car performances speak for themselves regarding the suitability of the singlecvlinder Triumph for this class of work. C.iH and inspect the latest models.
