THE 8.5.A.-FAVOTTEirE WITH MILITARY DISPATCH EIDESS-AND WHY. It has sometimes been said, with much' truth, that the business test is tho best test of any motor. War is tho grimmest business of mankind, tnd lie military motor-cyclist stakes his lice, very often, upon tho reliabilitv of Ms mount. FTere is what Sergeant R. E. Schofield", R.E., 60'nior instructor of the Motor-cycle Sec-t-ion at Aldershot, has to say:—"Nearly every dispatch rider that has gone to the front has passed through my hands, and I em therefore in a position to judge how the different makes of machine are in favour. The B.S.A. is by far away the favourite, and it has yet to happen that a.B.S-A. has failed to act up to its well-earned repute. . . . I may state that 50 per cent, of the machines here are B S A.'s." A motor-cyclist with the Second' Cavalry Division, British Expeditionary Force, writes in a private letter: "The roads are hellish. ... My B.S.A. is the goods. I n« ver have to touch it. They are tho bikos, my boy. They knock the and any other make you like to mention into a cocked hat." There are plenty of other letters from the front, all to the Same effect. We.are landing 20 of the latest model B.S'.A.'s ex s.s. Marlborough this week, and can give immediate delivery. They are ideal machines for either sob ot side-car service, and their reliability is famous. Th* b.p. is i], and the three-speed countershaft gear is foolproof and wonderfully efficient.
