In 1977 and 1878 he was a regular part of Belle Vue's British League team, before signing for Leicester Lions in 1979.[2] He struggled to score well and was loaned to National League Stoke Potters for much of the season, although he was recalled by the Lions later in the season.[2] In 1980 he rode for Boston Barracudas, and also rode for King's Lynn Stars in the British League, although having averaged below three points for the Stars it proved to be his last spell in the top flight. He moved on to Edinburgh Monarchs for whom he rode until his retirement in 1983.[3]
