Hi, my intro and first post. I just found your forum and it was a pleasant suprise as I have an A7 ('48) and an A10 GF ('56) and am interested in all things BSA. I come from a land down under, in the bush east of Melbourne. Cheers Tomcat

Welcome aboard Tomcat, there's quite a few of us Aussies on the forum. I'm in South Aus, Mt Gambier. Good to see another longstroke on the road.

OK, so there's Europe and the bit on the left  I don't think Oz is part of Asia either.  Cheers

Sorry OT. Musky, Yes correct, Europe is a continent of individual sovereign countries. Some are republics with their citizens, some are Kingdoms with their subjects. But there is nowt in the imaginary land of the EU.

Thanks for the welcome. Ive had a bit of a look around and can see a lot of Beeza experience here, and I hope some of it rubs off on me  Hubie I'm up the warby highway where all the good riding roads are.  A happy snap of the A10, it has been laid up for 30 years after the engine was removed and dismantled. I've got it on the lift for rebuilding and am also collecting a few missing parts Cheers Tomcat

Lovely bars & tankpaint! I'd guess this bike would have lots of fascinating stories to tell if it could talk  Looking forward to the 'after' pictures.

That's the Railway Hotel Wilko, it's walking distance from the All British Rally at Newstead. No better place to be than sitting out front watching lots of Brit bikes go up and down all day  An A65 was the gate prize at the ABR this year
