Hi guys just a quick hello from a new member, ive been into classic british bikes pretty much all my life and in the last year ive managed to save up and buy myself an A10 which i love. I have noticed quiet a few old brits in the Basingstoke area and was wondering if there is a local club?

G'day, always willing to meet new old-bike nuts!

I'm in western australia and have a1960 A10 Gold Flash currently in a state of disassembly - they really are a gem though aren't they? Always had a soft spot for pre-unit BSAs.

Regards,
Blue

Hello Jay...

You will find the guys of the Hampshire BSA Owners Club a great bunch, Their camping weekend is comming up very soon, so make your way there to say hello, you'd be most welcome and will be able to go on a run out with them. I might even be there too. Take a look at their website for more details.

Also... depending on just where abouts you are, there is the Thames Vally BSA Owners Club, another great bunch to ride with and again they have an excellent website for you to read up.

Hope this helps and welcome along to your new A10 ownership, great bike I have two...  ::)
