does anyone know of any past or present olympians that became lorry drivers, or were drivers when they entered?
i only know of one. Tony (Anthony) Kitcher. he was a diver in either Australia, or Japan. i havn’t seen him for years, he must be about 70 by now.
he ended up running his own haulage business with about 6 lorries, but it came to an abrupt end about 15 years ago.
he got a gold, but then it was silver, then it became bronze, so he might not have got a medal at all. so the tale was told in typical lorry driver fashion. :laughing:

Dame Kelly Holmes has HGV entitlement and I think coaches too from her time in the Army. I recall seeing something in the Scania magazine when she took some vehicles out for a drive and reviewed them for the mag.
