Byrd Cup (1926) |
Ethel Byrd Cup
is awarded for the fastest handicapped "20".
The Ethel Byrd Cup was presented in 1926 by Mr B W Byrd, of the Anchor
Inn, Wyre. The race is usually held in June and it was an original condition
that the race should pass the door of the Anchor Inn. When the use of
"dead turns" in time trials was decreed to be unsafe the condition
lapsed as there was no suitable way to run the event past the Inn.
