Its not really possible to do Les Collins justice
in a short bio.
Coming from a famous speedway family with his four
brothers, the Collins tradition is being continued with Les's son
Aiden now riding.
Although coming to Glasgow late on in his career in
1999 his class was still evident although sadly his average was
on decline every year and it was no surprise when he left after
nearly three seasons to go to Workington for a year.
Les did return to Tigers colours in 2003 but ended
with an average almost 2 below his previous Tigers average.
It would take a few pages to list all Les' achievements
in speedway but he was a well respected rider and a joy to watch
racing. Although he has never officially retired it is unlikely
that he will return to competitive racing.
