Happy smiling people

May’s action-packed issue of NZ Petrolhead revisits Beach Hop with its annual ‘People of Beach Hop’ photo feature because as we all know, the event is as much about the people as it is the cars, bikes and music. It’s an event-packed magazine with coverage from the Holden Nationals, Whangarei Rev Up, Petrolheads @ Porirua, the Van Nationals, and Cobra Rodders’ 50^th. For fans of two-wheeled machinery there are the Patriots’ Fallen heroes Trust ride, the Evolution of the Motorcycle show in Napier, and circuit racing at Teretonga. Throw in Hydroplane GPs at Lake Rotoiti, a burnout comp and quarter- and eighth-mile drag racing and you’ve got it all going on. All the regular columns you know and love are there: Nostalgic Wheels, Muddy Wheels and 4WD Wheels.
