steve roberts 9,243 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steve roberts 9,243 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parsloes 1928 nearly 495 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
