Motor-cycle Scramble

The Nelson Motor Cycle Club chose a gruelling but interesting course at the Cable Bay road rifle range for its scramble meeting at Easter. Hillsides gave spectators almost an uninterrupted view of the course.

R. Boyce and H. Owen (both Blenheim) take the hillside rise together

Down on the fiat, but its a bumpy ride for T. Russel (Blen) and A. Daniel (Nel).

After a couple of spills in the greasy patch at right riders and officials conferred on an alteration of course.
