OMG !   Just like my 67T100C !   I love the growl of that twin 500 motor....!  
As a wet behind the ears youngster I rode the daylight out of my 67 both on the road and off road...
Rode it to school, work and play... Just plain wore it out..
Met my to-be wife on it...
When I traded it in on my Penton 6 day, Ira Burroughs had to rebuild just about everything on it... ;)
He turned it into a street bike though.. :-(

Would love to have one today !

Agreed Bob!  My first experience was a 1968 BSA Victor 441.  What a machine!  Where did Ira Burroughs work?  I want to say Demotte Yamaha Cycle Sales, but not sure.  See you Sunday at the swap meet!

I rode that section last spring with Ted and Rob at the spring Reliability Run. I was aboard Ted's modern dual sport bike and thought I was moving pretty good but couldn't keep Rob off my wheel on that Triumph. It was a great time!:).  

Ted, glad to see the OVBSA site up and running, good job. Tom

Be sure to watch for upcoming notices of the OVBSAOC's 2013 schedule.  Better yet, look in on the BSA club's site:  //www.ohiovalleybsaownersclub.com.  

Oh, and speaking of Mick's 441 Victor, here's Stevie Szewczyk on his, headin' out on the Reliability Run Dual Sport.  Note, that event host, Clark Francy, on the right.

And, winning a perfectly-restored example is just five bucks away.  Just go to: http://ohiovalleybsaownersclub.com/Site/forum2/raffle-bikes/10-2013-raffle-bike.

Beautiful bike, Ted, and that's the exact year my brother bought when I was 14 year old.  If I'm lucky enough to win the raffle I'm giving the bike to him!
