Daryl Perkins (born 20 April 1943)[1] is a former Australian professional track cyclist.
Biography
Perkins was born and lives in the state of Victoria, Australia. He was a sprint, tandem and six-day rider.[2]
Perkins teamed with Ian Browne to win the tandem sprint at the Australian National Track Championships. That qualified them to compete at the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.[3] They were knocked out of the tandem sprint in the quarter-final by the Soviet Union and came fifth.[1]
In 1966, Perkins won the bronze medal in the 1000m sprint at the British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Kingston, Jamaica, finishing behind Roger Gibbon and Jim Booker.[4]
Perkins took over a hotel in Ararat in 2004.[5] He is also involved in Derny piloting and is a commissaire.[6]
He is the father of track cyclist Shane Perkins.[7]
During 2018 Six Days of Berlin, he flew to watch his son Shane race and was infected with Meningococcal meningitis, which can cause permanent disabilities or even death. A GoFundMe fundraising campaign organized by Six Day Series exceeded its target of 20,000 euros due to the support of the German public. He was cured after 6 weeks, then returning to Australia for further recovery. Shane Perkins was grateful for the reception and raced again in the 2019 Six Days of Berlin.[8]
