speedyguy 20 Posted March 24, 2006 Tony and Steve Langdon were part of the Aussie invasion at Poole from the mid 80s along with Stan Bear,Craig Boyce,Leigh Adams.Probably more.Due maybe to neil Street connection ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Let's get this clear. Steve LangTon and Steve LangDon are different riders. I accept the facts on Steve LangDon. Steve LangTon was an old pal of mine at Southampton in the early 1950s. he started speedway at Toowoomba in Queensland along with Phil 'Tiger" Hart around 1926-27. Both came to England and were firm friends. Pre-war Langton rode for among other tracks Southampton, Walthamstow and Birmingham. After the 1939-45 war (he served as a Sgt-Major in Australian Army) he rode from 1947 to 1951 firstly at Tamworth then at Southampton again. He went back to Brisbane Australia and raced there until late 1950s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norbold 7,109 Posted March 24, 2006 I think Steve Langton may have been the first Australian to use the foot forward method of riding. He was certainly an early exponent of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know there were two Australian brothers at Eastbourne around 1958 one of whom went on to have rides at Swindon. I was wrong to give that surname - age creeping up on me I guess!
