IT PROVED to be a highly memorable Bank Holiday weekend for Rugby and the Cossar family with brothers Mart and Tom as well as sister Jeni all recording notable success at events across the country.
Mark and passenger Carl Blyth were victorious once again, this time in Worcester where they won the 1,000cc Midland Centre Championship title on Sunday.
At the same event, Mark’s younger brother Tom also made the grand final alongside passenger Wayne Richards but the pair could on finish in fourth position.
Elsewhere, sister Jeni got in on the act in fine style on Monday as passenger to Scott Dunn with the duo coming first in the 500cc East Anglian Spring Trophy Meeting in Chelmsford.
Not to be outdone by his younger sibling, Mark again won the 1,000cc event and Tom put in another eye-catching performance to finish fourth after being partnered by Rugby’s Gareth Williams.
Despite focusing on the considerable new responsibility of becoming a father during the close season, Mark looked every inch the rider who has captured four British Masters titles, while younger brother Tom and sister Jeni, who have both had enforced spells out of the sport due to injury, they showed what undoubtedly strong racing talent there is in the Cossar dynasty.
