Arthur Jervis

Arthur Warden Jervis (26 February 1905 – 12 December 1987) was an international motorcycle speedway rider from England.

He earned two international caps for the England national speedway team.

[1] Jervis, born in Coventry, rode in the pioneer years of British speedway, riding dirt track meetings in his home city of Coventry from the age of 14 and becoming champion of the Midlands and North in 1928.

[4] In 1931, Leicester Super team manager Alec Jackson signed Jervis as the new captain, also signing Australian international Bruce McCullum, Tommy Price, Cliff Watson, and Alf Summersby.

Despite being capped by England and still being in demand by teams, he chose to concentrate on his builder's business in Coventry.
