1954 Triumph Riders Clean Up at Dodge City!
Vintage 1954 Triumph Dodge City Ad - Available Here.
In the spectacular 100 Mile Dodge City Grand Prix, on July 4, 1954, Walt Fulton of Kansas City, Mo., won easily over a field of fast riders on all makes of motorcycles and from many different states. Fulton rode a regular stock Triumph T-100C T100C T 100 C with road equipment to establish the first record of 1 hour 40 min. over the new Dodge City 1 1/2 mile airstrip course.
Fulton's stock Triumph had been ridden to Dodge City from Omaha. After the victory the headlight and battery were reinstalled and the machine ridden back to Nebraska. A remarkable achievement and proof that Triumph is a Class "C" champion.
In fourth spot, the national No. 1 Expert rider, Bill Tuman of Rockford, Illinois, riding his first long race on a Triumph, rode steadily and consistently improved his position, moving from fifteenth place at the start to fourth place at the finish. Like Fulton's winning Triumph, the one Tuman rode was a stock machine and a strange one for Tuman. It takes a Triumph to beat a Triumph!
Fastest Time in Drag Racing - 1st Bobby Sir Kegian
This 14 year old Triumph rider topped all contestants in the drags with a speed of 118.2 mph for 1/4 mile from standing start. He also won his first sporting road race - the 200cc to 350cc class on a Triumph Cub, defeating riders on machines having up to 350cc capacity.

1954: Triumph Terrier 150cc Motorcycle gets 152 mpg on Mobilgas in Dodge City Kansas
Vintage Triumph Mobilgas Ad - Available Here.
Triumph Terrier 150cc O.H.V. Wins Sweepstakes at the Dodge City, Kansas National Economy Trials with the amazing average of 152 miles per gallon. One hour, 10 min. on one quart of Mobil Gas.
Defeating 38 men, attractive 19 year old Jo Ann Bristow of Borger, Texas, rode a steady pace on her Terrier for one hour ten minutes around the Dodge City half-mile track covering 38 miles on one quart of gas for an average of 152 miles per gallon. Miss Bristow has been riding a motorcycle only 4 months, thus her spectacular victory is all the more impressive. She not only won her class but secured the best overall mileage for the sweepstakes award.
She used Mobilgas Special (the same as used by all other contestants) and a brand available at any Mobilgas station. For 76 laps (38 miles) around the track, Miss Bristow rode at an average of about 34 miles per hour.
