Garry Stead is one of the most popular and richest Motorcycle Racer who was born on January 5, 1972 in Holmfirth, Holmfirth, United Kingdom. Garry Stead (born 5 January 1972 in Holmfirth, England) is a former speedway champion from the world.

In 1995, Garry was made a full-time Bradford Dukes rider, cementing his spot in the main team and securing a winning medal in the KO Cup. Also, he had a great individual year , which allowed him to qualify for his very first British Final and also progress through his first Overseas Final. However, the season was not without its hiccups, however, and Garry was injured again that was this time an injured ankle at the final stretch to the campaign.

1997 also saw the end of Speedway at Odsal Stadium, the home of the Bradford Dukes, and in 1998 Garry joined the Wolverhampton Wolves on loan from Bradford Dukes as the Ham brothers still held his contract. His season did not work out too well with the Wolves as he never really got to grips with the track there, although he did yet again qualify for his third appearance in the British Final.

In 1999 Garry got a move back up North with the Hull Vikings and there he stayed until 2005 when their season came to an abrupt ending with two months remaining due to the promotion having financial difficulties, Garry would see the remainder of this season out by relying on guest bookings. It was during his time with the Vikings that Garry had most of his track success winning the Premier Trophy in 2000 and the KO Cup in 2001.

Garry was transferred from Brough Park back in the year 1993 as a member of the Newcastle Diamonds outfit, scoring very well, but he was not able to make it through the entire season without injury, because he suffered an injured thumb and wrist. It was while he was at Newcastle when Bradford director Alan Ham became aware of Garry’s potential. Ham swiftly secured his services during the 1994 season. He also paid him PS15,000 but then loaned him to Newcastle to play the remainder of the year.

Garry today is happy that he has never missed an entire season in his speedway career since it began in 1987 when he was a young speedway participant. Garry hoped that he could be able to return to his team the Hull Vikings before his racing career came to an end, but it was not the case. One of Garry’s most memorable moments of his racing career was when he appeared as a guest for Poole Pirates in the 2003 Speedway Star KO Cup final and was paired along with Tony Rickardsson for a 5-1. Poole won the race by Garry playing in the two meetings, and also receiving the winners’ medal.

Garry began his career as a schoolboy grasstrack rider and won his class at the British Championship in his category several times. His first speedway experience began with the Bradford Dukes training school in 1987, then followed by meetings. Garry’s initial club was the now-defunct Cradley Heath Heathens in 1988 in which the junior was in his first year before moving to the Stoke Potters in 1989. He continued to ride after the meetings, however during the course of the season, he fractured his elbow. It was in Stoke that Garry was able to compete for a place in the team towards the close of the 1990 season. Garry was a regular player in the year 1991, and was at Stoke until the end of 1992.

1996 saw Garry again qualify for the British Final and also found him surplus to requirements at Bradford after they signed Australian Todd Wiltshire. A loan agreement was quickly arranged for Garry to join the Sheffield Tigers and that season saw Garry progress to heat leader status with Tigers. The following year Alan and Bobby Ham brought Garry back to the Dukes. 1997 was a good year for Garry, ending the season with an Elite League Championship winning team medal.
