I thought I'd better do this before the old bike leaves me.
The first BSA publicity picture must have been taken during the introduction of the first A series motorcycles.
The second photo I took at the same location, (Lowsenford Warwickshire) yesterday.

Used to love the fingerboard signposts - what juvenile amusement it was to rearrange rural geography by pointing them in different directions  . . .
