message: My Uncle is said to have owned a 'Daudel Motorcycle' in 1930. I can find no history of such a machine can you help? Thanks. Douglas Gresham.

A: My ancient copy of Tragatsch does not list such a machine, but I found a reference to them here which reads: "[C.S.] Lewis's conversion to Christianity was powered by the internal combustion engine. He made the voyage from atheism to theism on the upper deck of the Headington bus in 1929, and completed his journey to Christianity in the sidecar of his brother's Daudel motorcycle en route to Whipsnade zoo."

Can anyone enlarge upon this - is there such a motorcycle, or is this a furphy? Ed.

message: Sir,
Your quote outlines the reason I am asking. C.S.Lewis was my stepfather and his brother my uncle.
