TT races halted by war. In 1915, the Cleveland Motorcycle Company (USA) builds a two-stroke "Lightweight" almost an exact copy of Triumph's Junior model, and continues production of it until 1924. In 1916, Excelsior (USA, owned by Schwinn) builds its own Junior clone, the L18. Ivor Davies says the company was licensed by Triumph to manufacture the machines until 1920. In 1917, US company Henderson merges with Excelsior in Chicago, under Ignatz Scwinn. In 1918, Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (BMW) is founded in Germany. In 1915 British Post Office uses motorcycle riders to deliver mail. In 1915, BSA built a large four-storey workshop to accommodate huge production increases during the war. In 1915, Edward Turner got his first ride on a motorcycle (a Light Tourist New Imperial).</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
