Jason Doyle (born 6 October 1985 in Newcastle, New South Wales) is an Australian motorcycle speedway rider who rides for the Leicester Lions in the British Elite League.[1]

Career

Doyle made his British speedway debut in March 2005 for Premier League team the Isle of Wight Islanders. In 2006, Doyle remained with the Isle of Wight and signed for the Poole Pirates as their number 8 before moving up to the Elite League full-time with Poole in 2007. He moved to Premier League team the Somerset Rebels in 2008 after failing to secure a team place at Poole, although he still remained a Poole asset.[2] During the 2008 season Doyle finished as runner up in the Premier League Pairs Championship with Emil Kramer and represented Australia at Under-23 Test level. He also won the Premier League Knockout Cup with Somerset.[3] Doyle missed the 2009 season after tearing the rotator cuff in his shoulder, but returned in 2010 for the Poole Pirates. In the 2013 season Doyle signed for the Birmingham Brummies. In December 2013 he signed for Leicester Lions for the 2014 season.

Doyle has also raced in Poland and Sweden.
