Leigh Stefan Lanham (born 15 August 1977 in Ipswich, Suffolk)[1] is a speedway rider in the United Kingdom.
Son of former rider Mike, Lanham won the British Under 21 Championship in 1997.[2] He has reached the World Under 21 Final and has finished in the top six of the British Speedway Championship.
