"TRIUMPHS" SCOOP THE IWU, IN TIIIJKF. DAYS' TRIALS AT CHRISTCHURCH.

One of the Wrongest points about the "Triumph" motor-cycle is the eoDsiste*v of its performance. Other "long suits'' of tho "TriumpU" . are reliability and economy. We are in the happy position of being able to offer abundant proof of these assertions. Last jmr when the results o'f the North Cantorbisry Motor Cycling Club's animal reliability trials were worked out it was found that tho "Triumph" riders were first in the private owners' class, first in tho fcraffo class, first i.n tho petrol eoiiSiunptio-M tost, ancl first in the teams'. competition, sweeps llig ihe btsard. In this year's trials, rim on .TaiUtavy Ist, 2ml. anil 3rd, over a msmile route, iaeludkg the steep liill at Okaift's Bay, and 'lie Zig-zag, Willi tho roads in bid condition, there was a ftcM of twenty-seven riders, and all the- Wading makes- of motor-cycle were represent, ed. Thero were Ho fewer tliaii nine of thoso bi.fi; tu-iiwylii'ider machines. Wa have been told recently that those hvlnn are mighty economical on petrol, but, 0n this occasion, the "Triumph" upheld fh x , honour of ihe single-cylinder brigade br getting lowest fetid consumption. Yoii rpo this timo there was an official test for petrol consumption. The result board runs as follows:—Private Owners' Class— V. Couehmaii, "Triumph," 1; H, Pearce, "Triumph.," 2. Trade Clnss—F. IlnwoHh! "Triumph," 1; <J. B. Brown, "Triumph," 2; ,1, H. Michael "Triuiwiiii." 3. Teams' Ha worth, G, R. jjrow'h, and J, H. Michael, "Triumphs," I, Fctvfii Cfmsumpiioii—F. Haworth. "Triumph,'' 1. It.is unnecessary to point the aioriil or .adorn tho tale.
