A BIKING enthusiast has been named as the latest winner of The Northern Echo's Communigate competition.

Brian Moore, of Stockton, set up a website for fans of veteran BSA Bantam motorbikes four months ago and has had hits from across the world.

His site has been so successful he has won the Pick of the Month prize under the Communigate project, which helps non-profit-making organisations promote themselves for free on the Internet.

Mr Moore's site contains information and pictures about the bikes, which were last produced in 1971. He said: "I started the site because there's not any official network or club for BSA Bantams."

Mr Moore bought his first Bantam three years ago and is keen to hear from owners all over the world to add to the 2,000 hits his site has had.

The site can be accessed via www.communigate.co.uk/ne
