Popularity of Motor-Cycling Clubs.

At the Ashburton Motor Cycle Club's rally recently, no fewer than 300 motor-cyclists assembled at Seaview to participate in a programme of events. Incidentally the programme attracted 2,000 spectators. In Wellington, too, the activities of motor-cycling clubs are increasing and the “speedway” at Pahautanui, a short distance from Wellington, regularly attracts large attendances.

The motor-cyclists in these clubs realise that the track is the place for speeding—not the road. It is the aim of club-members to secure the allegiance of all motor-cyclists and so remove any risk of legislation framed to curb the few at the expense of the many.
