Summary
Pathe synopsis: Just as highly-trained are the members of the Royal Signals Display Team. From the moment an unmanned motorcycle cleverly avoids obstacles in the arena, their show is second-packed with thrills. Riders charge through hoops of fire, race off a moving springboard, yet end with the traditional climax - a twenty-man pyramid moving slowly on motorcycles.
