I headed off on a two day road trip on the new 2023 BSA Gold Star to trace back the story of BSA Motorcycles!

Starting at Global Moto Coventry, with an original 1959 BSA Gold Star, I rode over to where it all started in Small Heath, Birmingham, before riding over to Triumph's Meriden location and then onto the world's oldest motorcycle dealership.
