Biography
Dougie took part in his first trial event at the age of nine, taking also his first victory. In addition to his current world titles, he has also achieved the European Championship in 1993, two victories as team member of the British team at the Trial des Nations, seven British Championships and two Spanish Championships.
His performance in national championships, achieving three British titles, allowed him to move up to the World Championship, where he had his debut in 1993. One year later, at the British Trial, Lampkin took his first victory and since then his improving career has not stopped. He also took over from another mythic champion, Jordi Tarrés. It seemed impossible that somebody would be able to improve the record of victories of the Spanish rider, but Lampkin made it, improving his sports results in a spectacular way. He only needed two years to consolidate himself among the elite. He was fourth in the 1995 season; runner-up in 1996 and from that moment on he began to collect world championship titles in an overwhelming way.
World Champion in 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003, he had to give in in 2004 after the hard push of his team-mate Takahisa Fujinami, but became runner-up setting a record that will hardly be improved in the history of this sport. Lampkin knew also perfectly well how to combine his participation in the outdoor and indoor world championships, the latter being a perfect training during the winter season.
A rider with an outstanding sports career, who added three victories to his impressive record in 2005, but couldn’t avoid the world championship to be taken by Spanish rider Adam Raga, having to settle for the third place, behind team-mate Fujinami. In 2006, Lampkin was fourth in the Outdoor World Championship making the debut of the four-stroke Montesa Cota 4RT, and finished the Indoor World Championship in sixth place. He has started this season with the fifth position in the indoor series and is ready to face his fourteenth World Championship season. A sportsman with two faces: decided and spectacular on the bike, and calm and relaxed when he gets off it. A discreet person, who considers golf one of his biggest passions.
