David Peter Howe (born 1 March 1982) is a former motorcycle speedway rider from England.[1][2][3]

Career

Born in Leicester, England, David Howe started his career on 31 March 1997, aged 15, with the Peterborough Panthers team in the Conference League. After winning the Premier League in 1998 with Peterborough Panthers[4] he was part of the squad that won the treble with Peterborough: the Elite League, the Knockout Cup and the Craven Shield.[5]

He won the British Under-21 Championship in 2000 and in 2002 he finished third in the World Under-21 Championship.[6] After collecting a second Knockout Cup winners medal, he left Peterborough after the 2001 season to join Wolverhampton Wolves. His switch to the Midlands club resulted in immediate success because the team won the Elite League.[4]

In 2003, he reached his fifth World Under 21 final and featured in the Speedway Grand Prix for the first time, having been awarded a wild card place for 2003 Speedway Grand Prix series in Britain and Slovenia. He would later ride as a wild card for the 2007 Speedway Grand Prix of Great Britain, awarded to him after finishing runner-up in the 2007 British Championship.[7]

He spent six seasons at Wolverhampton (split by one season with Oxford Cheetahs) before he joined Scunthorpe Scorpions in 2009. In 2011, he rode in his tenth and last British final. He became the club captain at Scunthorpe and rode for them for seven seasons before his Scunthorpe riding career came to an end after 2015.[4]

Howe was also successful in both Grasstrack and Longtrack having competed at the highest level of both disciplines and used GM engines that were tuned by Sean Wilson.

After two seasons with Berwick Bandits, he announced his retirement from the sport at the end of the 2018 season.[8] At retirement he had earned four international caps for the Great Britain national speedway team.[3]

Management

Howe had retained a relationship with Scunthorpe Scorpions, helping Ryan Douglas with his engines before he was appointed the team manager of the Scunthorpe Scorpions for the 2024 season, replacing Dave Peet.[9]
