steve roberts Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Following on from the thread regarding fathers and sons who rode it did get me thinking of grandfathers who have competed. I can only come up with Charlie (Grandfather), Bob (Father) brothers John & Eric also rode and sons of Bob Martin & Paul Dugard. I remember reading sometime ago that Martin's son dabbled in the sport also...so that would actually make it four generations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve roberts Posted April 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 I guess that at a stretch Neil Street being father-in-law to Phil Crump and therefore Grandfather to Jason may qualify? I claim special dispensation for that one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsloes 1928 nearly Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 I guess that at a stretch Neil Street being father-in-law to Phil Crump and therefore Grandfather to Jason may qualify? I claim special dispensation for that one! No need for special dispensation... Jason's father (Phil) rode and so did his grandfather (Street) - that's three generations from Jason's perspective! Following on from the thread regarding fathers and sons who rode it did get me thinking of grandfathers who have competed. I can only come up with Charlie (Grandfather), Bob (Father) brothers John & Eric also rode and sons of Bob Martin & Paul Dugard. I remember reading sometime ago that Martin's son dabbled in the sport also...so that would actually make it four generations! Certainly is FOUR generations. Martin's son Kelsey was runner up a couple of years ago in the GB Youth Champs and rides in the NL for the Isle of Wight. Allott, Allott & Allott. All the best Rob EDIT: Arnie beat me to it by seconds In this case, seconds is Allott...!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
