British, European, American Racing (BEARS) paid tribute this weekend to the passing 20 years ago of one of it's most inspirational members, John Britten.
Seven Britten motorcycles were on display, along with various memorabilia.
When the chips were down and it came time to pull on the racing gloves the event attracted 170 competitors, both nationally and internationally.
Once again the Galway clan were riding those quick machines from Bob Nesbitt's stable up there at Classic Cycles in Upper Hutt.
That's Terry the Dad on the left with son's Jaden and Jamie next to the maestro himself Big Nes!
They all rode well with Jamie taking out 2 wins and three seconds at my last count anyway. The '62 Atlas 750, #515 above, literally flew and Jamie, riding the Speed Triple below, came a close second to Andrew Stroud.
Terry got his gloves wet when he stepped off his 850 Commando coming out of the sweeper when we think he hit the white line...he was up and running after the bike as it was still skidding along the track!
