Robert Ksiezak (born 15 January 1987 in Adelaide, Australia)[1] is a speedway rider, riding with the Glasgow Tigers in the British Premier League.
He started his UK career with Glasgow's rivals, the Edinburgh Monarchs. However he lost his place halfway through the 2006 season and was quickly signed by the Tigers. He controversially chose to stay with Glasgow in 2007, leading to the club purchasing his contract from Edinburgh. Robert has agreed terms to be the Belle Vue Aces number 8 for the 2008 season.
He has Polish and Australian citzenship. On the 6th May 2008 he gained a Polish speedway licence (Licencja "Ż") in Toruń.[2]. Since then he has taken part in the Polish Championships as a Polish domestic rider (as Robert Księżak).[3].
