BECK PROVES THAT HE IS THE OUTSTANDING ALL-ROUND RIDER IN HONGKONG TODAY
By "NTACA”
If any proof were needed that Ron Beck is the outstanding all-round rider in the Colony today, it was provided by the manner of his victory in the 65 miles Massed Start Race for the “NTACA" Cup, held on Sunday. Breaking away from the leading group at 40 miles, he time-trialled his way to
a brilliant solo win, over two and a half minutes ahead of the rest of the field. A sterling performance. The first of the four inps was fairly quiet until the first hill on the Golf Course road, when Beck and Ellingham sprinted away to tear the field apart into several small groups.
