Brian Leonard (speedway rider)
Brian John Leonard (born 19 February 1946) is a British former motorcycle speedway rider.
Born in Newbury, Leonard followed his father Maurice into speedway.〔 He started his career with second half rides at Oxford in 1962, and made his league debut later that year, riding for Poole Pirates and Swindon Robins.〔Oakes, Peter & Mauger, Ivan (1976) ''Who's Who of World Speedway'', Studio Publications, ISBN 0-904584-04-6, p. 76〕 His first two years in speedway were marred by injury, suffering two collarbone breaks, and he missed four and a half months in 1963 with two broken bones in his left leg.〔Oakes, Peter (1963) "A Peter Oakes Speedtale on Brian Leonard (Poole)", ''Speedway Star'', 28 September 1963, p. 23〕 In 1965 he signed for West Ham Hammers, where he steadily improved, averaging over seven points per match in the 1967 season.〔 After a spell with Hackney Hawks in 1969, he moved on to Wembley Lions in 1970, also riding for Newport Wasps for a period.〔 He moved to Swindon Robins in 1972, but by 1974 his average had dropped below four points.〔 He was signed by Leicester Lions in 1975 but released after a poor run of results, due in part to a back injury, which led to his retirement from the sport.〔Jones, Alan (2010) ''Speedway in Leicester: The Lions Roar'', Automedia, p. 171〕 He returned in 1976 and fared better after dropping down to the National League with Oxford Cheetahs, averaging over seven points.〔Bamford,R & Shailes,G (2007). “The Story of Oxford Speedway”. ISBN 978-0-7524-4161-0〕 The following year he scored less well, and after two matches in 1978 he retired.
