AT AUCTION IN FRANCE

My good friend Tim Lezard (whose great-grandfather built the Storey car in Clapham Park in the 1920s) now spends most of his time in France, where he has a house, and sends me details of bikes sold at auction there which are rarely seen in the UK. Among his latest batch were this Automoto with partially enclosed frame, a 100cc Rhony X and a DKW two-stroke. All are in unrestored condition.
