Syd Jackson (speedway rider)
Syd Jackson (sometimes referred to as Sid Jackson) (born c.1908) was a British motorcycle speedway rider who was one of the stars of the early years of the sport in Britain, and an international rider who represented England several times.
Prior to taking up speedway, Jackson rode in TT racing.〔Bamford, Robert (2003) ''Speedway: The Pre-War Years'', Tempus, ISBN 0-7524-2749-0, p. 197〕 He rode in the first year of British speedway in 1928, including the majority of the meetings held at Leicester Stadium, and between 1929 and 1931 captained the Leicester Stadium team.〔Jones, Alan (2010) ''Speedway in Leicester: The Pre-War Years'', Automedia, p. 75, 182-3〕 In 1929 he won fourteen individual titles.〔 He won the Leicestershire Championship in both 1929 and 1930.〔 He missed the start of the 1931 season, while he concentrated on obtaining a pilot's licence.〔 When speedway closed down in Leicester in 1931 he moved on to Coventry, before spending five years with Wimbledon.〔 He became an accomplished pilot, flying his Avro Avian from Croydon to Australia in 1934.〔''Flight International'', Royal Aero Club of the United Kingdom, 1934, p. 1143〕
Jackson reached the final of the Star Riders' Championship in five consecutive years between 1930 and 1934.〔
He was included in the England team in four Test series against Australia between 1930 and 1933.〔 In the first test of 1933 at Wembley, he scored 15 points from reserve, including three race wins in England's 76-47 victory.〔Foster, Peter (2005) ''A History of the Speedway Ashes'', Tempus, ISBN 0-7524-3468-3, p. 32-33〕 He scored 12 points in the second test at Belle Vue.〔
