Andre Bertin at a request from Ron Kitching gave Barry Hoban his first chance to race for a continental team in 1962. This was the Bertin-Porter 39 Team of independents. Porter 39 is a famous French beer from the Pas de Calais region. Barry rode Andre Bertin bikes with some sucess on both road and track whilst with this team.

Best wishes and be lucky. Michael Butler Huntingdon UK.
