MORE " TRIUMPH " VICTORIES. ! ' The noteworthy feature of last Saturday's beach racing at New Brigton was the consistent and unanimous manner, so to 6peak, in which the Triumph riders beat all other single-cylinder competitors, putting, up the fastest singlecylinder times in each event. In tho 16 Miles Handicap, G. B. Brown was placed second and made fastest singlecylinder time, 17min 53sec. In the 24 Miles Race, F. Haworth was placed first and covered tho distance in the . remarkably fast time of 25min 26sec, the fastest single-cylinder time. O. Bennington was second, covering the distance in 2_min Bsec, a very fine performance for a 15-stone rider. G. B. Brown gained second fastest single-cylinder timo in this event. In the Eight Mile Side-car event, F. Haworth *_» placed second, | and made fastest single-cylinder time, ' lOmin 29 ljssee, only beaten on ■ time by a 6-6 h.p. twin cylinder mach- " tne by the narrow margin of 5. l-ssec. • G. B. Brown ran into third place and ■ made second fastest timo - —illmin 16sec. The new Triumphs are now to hand, ex Corinthic and' Remu--1 era, and orders can be promptly filled. Tho 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 31 h.p. single cylinder machine on the* market. Tho side-car performances speak for themselves regarding the suitability of the singlecylinder Triumph for this class of work. Call and inspect the latest models.
