Brian Collins (born 13 May 1948 in Edinburgh, Scotland) is a former motorcycle speedway rider in National League (speedway) September 1975 The National League Riders Championship at Wimbledon. After two unbeaten rides, Collins came out against the only other unbeaten rider – Paul Gachet of Eastbourne Eagles. In their third heat, both Collins and Gachet were cut up before the first bend, Gachet's wheel being struck and, in holding his machine steady, the young Eagle found himself at the back. As he managed to pass Collins, his bike reared on the notorious second bend of Plough Lane and both he and Collins fell. Gachet was carried off and, in the re-run, Collins scored 3 points. Collins went out in the final heat needing only 1 point for a run-off and 2 for the Crown. Lying second behind Les Rumsey, he fell on the third lap, remounted, but was too far behind to catch up. Then, Brian Clarke, in third place, fell off in the same spot and Collins went past him for the vital 1 point. Just two riders in the run-off and Laurie Etheridge rode across Collins before the first bend and Collins picked himself up from the track and watched from the centre green as Etheridge completed four laps to become Champion Results: Champion: Laurie Etheridge, Crayford, 13 Runner up: Brian Collins, Coatbridge, 13 Third: Arthur Browning, Birmingham, 10 Rode 4 times for Scotland in internationals ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brian Collins (speedway rider)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
