Granted his speedway career took a bit of a back seat behind starring in stage and film musicals but I reckon he might have been one of the greats - leg trailing while singing The Rain In Spain? haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't find any record of him riding afterwards for the Archers though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
