LEIGH Lanham has announced his retirement from racing after over two decades in the sport.
39-year-old Lanham made his senior debut for Ipswich back in 1993 and was associated for the majority of his career with the Witches and Lakeside. His final season in 2016 was spent with Rye House.
Lanham said: “I feel the timing is right. I’ve been very lucky to do something I’ve loved doing for the last 23 years.
“I really can’t believe it’s been so long, I’ve got some great memories over the years, I’ve been lucky to race for some great clubs and met so many decent people along the way from fellow riders to supporters, it’s been brilliant.
“I’m also so lucky to have had some awesome sponsors which helped me to have good kit. I want to say thanks so much to all of them.”
