Geoffrey Ambrose (born 26 July 1946) is a former motorcycle speedway rider from England.[1]

Career

Born in Stoke-on-Trent, Ambrose began his career in 1967 with Wolverhampton Wolves, riding in two Division One matches.[2] He stayed with Wolverhampton until the end of the 1971 season, also riding in Division Two for Crayford Highwaymen in 1968 and 1969.[2]

His best year was 1969, averaging over 10 points per match for Crayford and over 6 for Wolverhampton, also winning the British League Division Two Riders Championship, held at Hackney Wick Stadium on 26 September.[3][2] He represented a Young England side against Australasia and Czechoslovakia in 1969, and again in 1973, against Sweden.[2]

In 1972, he moved on to Leicester Lions, and scored well until a series of knee injuries prompted his retirement from the sport.[4] In 1973, he returned to racing with Crewe Kings in Division Two, also making four appearances for Leicester.[2][4]

He retired early in the 1975 season to concentrate on his motorcycle dealership business.[2]

Other pursuits

Ambrose was also a musician, and played in a band.[5]
