Black began racing in the mid-1960s, and he won the South Island Championship in 1969 and 1970.[1] He rode in the third Test of 1969/70 against England at Christchurch and also rode for New Zealand against Sweden in 1972.[1] In 1973 he travelled to England where he rode for Teesside Tigers, but only rode in seven meetings before his season was ended by a broken collarbone and arm.[1] After regaining his fitness in the 1973/74 New Zealand season, he returned to the UK in 1974 to ride for Leicester Lions.[1][2] Disappointing results for Leicester saw him return to Teesside, but in his first match back for the team he suffered a broken ankle, ending his British league career.[1] He continued to ride in New Zealand for several years before retiring.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 Holmes, Tracy "Riders to Remember...Tom Black", Speedway Plus, retrieved 2012-03-15 {{DEFAULTSORT:Black, Tom}}{{speedway-bio-stub}}{{NewZealand-sport-bio-stub}}2. ^Jones, Alan (2010) Speedway in Leicester: The Lions Roar, Automedia, p. 159 5 : Living people|New Zealand speedway riders|Middlesbrough Bears riders|Leicester Lions riders|Year of birth missing (living people) |
