Fred Tuck

Henry George Frederick Tuck (16 October 1915 – x January 1993) was a motorcycle speedway rider from England.

[1] Tuck, born in Leyton, London, started riding on speedway tracks in 1935, taking part in various meetings around the country for Plymouth Panthers and Wembley Lions reserves.

[3] In 1937, he was signed by Hackney Wick Wolves but because the White City Greyhound Company owned both Hackney and Nottingham at the time, he was allocated to Nottingham for the season, where he won the Provincial Trophy with the team.

[6] Another fractured season ensued, when in 1939 he started for Stoke Potters, only to be forced again to move, this time to Belle Vue Aces reserves because Stoke withdrew from the league.

After the resumption of speedway after World War II, he at last found stability riding for Odsal Boomerangs for two seasons and then signing for Bristol Bulldogs for the remaining years of his career.
