Frederick Lindsay Lloyd was born on 26 November 1866, and educated at Clifton and at the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich. He was commissioned into the Royal Engineers in 1885, and worked in sea defence in Hong Kong. He also served in the South African Campaign 1899-1901 (despatches, medal and 3 clasps), and following his time serving abroad became secretary of the War Office Committee on mechanical transport, interesting himself very largely in inquiring into the possibilities of the application of all forms of mechanical transport for military purposes. Major Lindsay Lloyd became one of the chief organisers of the 1904 Gordon Bennett Elimination races on the Isle of Man, and shortly thereafter became the Clerk of Brooklands race track, going on to become the Manager of Brooklands Racing Club. Major F. Lindsay Lloyd, who retired from the Army in 1906, was also instrumental in drawing up the first record regulations used by the R.A.C. and B.A.R.C. as Clerk of the Course at Brooklands. He rejoined the Army in 1914 and was made Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel on 3 June 1916 (C.M.G. 1918, C.B.E. 1919). After the war Colonel F. Lindsay Lloyd continued in his role as Clerk of the Course and Manager of Brooklands Racing Club until 1929. He was elected to the Aero Club of Great Britain in 1908; President of the British Motor-Cycling Racing Club in 1926; Vice President Auto Cycle Union 1925-39; and on the Racing Committee of B.A.R.C. 1935. Colonel F. Lindsay Lloyd died at Hatfield, Herts., on 12 February 1940.
