Blackburn was born in Coventry and is the son of former Coventry Bees team manager Mick Blackburn.[1] After second half rides in 1979 and 1980 he was signed by Leicester Lions for whom he rode in junior events and he was loaned out to National League teams Workington Comets in 1981, Long Eaton Invaders in 1982, and Boston Barracudas in 1981, 1982 and 1983.[2] He made a handful of appearances in Leicester's senior team before the club folded at the end of the 1983 season.[2] He then moved on to Milton Keynes Knights and Newcastle for two seasons each, also riding in the British League for Belle Vue Aces, Ipswich Witches, Sheffield Tigers and Wolverhampton Wolves in 1987. After riding for Glasgow Tigers in 1988,[3] he spent four years with Berwick Bandits. After a season each with Sheffield and Swindon Robins he retired in 1994, but returned to Berwick in 1997 for his final season in British speedway. He returned to the track in 2007 in a farewell meeting at Redcar for Kevin Little.[4] References1. ^Oakes, Peter (1986) 1986 Speedway Yearbook, Sportsdata, {{ISBN|0-948882-05-0}}, p. 210 {{DEFAULTSORT:Blackburn, David}}2. ^1 Jones, Alan (2010) Speedway in Leicester: The Lions Roar, Automedia, p. 159 3. ^"[https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=yzhAAAAAIBAJ&sjid=N1kMAAAAIBAJ&pg=6990,8309699&dq=david-blackburn+speedway&hl=en Speedway]", Glasgow Herald, 29 April 1988, retrieved 2012-03-15 4. ^Neal, Martin (2007) "Speedway: Big bash for Little", Evening Gazette, 5 April 2007, retrieved 2012-03-15 16 : 1962 births|Living people|British speedway riders|English motorcycle racers|Leicester Lions riders|Workington Comets riders|Long Eaton Invaders riders|Boston Barracudas riders|Milton Keynes Knights riders|Reading Racers riders|Newcastle Diamonds riders|Belle Vue Aces riders|Berwick Bandits riders|Glasgow Tigers riders|Sheffield Tigers riders|Swindon Robins riders |
