Friday Night Extra Extra - Leigh Adams to Retire from Speedway

Leigh Adams is now only 38 years-old and is actually a legend in the Speedway Grand Prix paddock - at least in the minds of many fans of the sport. He has ridden for both the Swindon Robins and the Polish Leszno and retired from the Grand Prix series last year.

He'll probably pop up here and there...but, we will see.
