[1] Mountford, born in Salisbury, Wiltshire, began riding for the Bristol Bulldogs junior team in 1946,[2] one year before making his British leagues debut riding for the first team during the 1947 Speedway National League Division Two season.

[6] Mountford's last season with the club was in 1952 because the Leicester Hunters team manager Squib Burton moved to sign him from Bristol in February 1953.

At the start of the 1954 season he rode a few times for Leicester and Southampton Saints before retiring.
