I have a photo of Reg West on the "Name The Rider" page of www.defunctspeedway.co.uk His daughter in law has been in touch with the website asking for help in obtaining any details of Reg's career

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Would someone be able to help us find out anything more on Reginald Aldgate West. He was born in Tasmania but the family moved from there to Melbourne. He travelled all over Australia racing he was also known to have done some wrestling in his time.

I have a Photo of him having won a race on his motorbike wearing his winners sash.

He was my father-in-law. We know very little of his racing career.

 

He travelled over to the UK with the Australian team to race at the Isle of Man/Wight in the early 1930's. We believe he raced all over the UK. He never went back to Australia. Seems he stopped racing at the start of the war. Could have been from serious injury?

 

Any info would be great. Thanks

So does anyone know anything about the wrestling speedway rider?
