Bruce Brian Hoani Cribb (born June 27, 1946 in Palmerston North, New Zealand)[1] is a former speedway rider who rode in the UK for several teams in a career spanning over twenty years. He began riding at Palmerston North, before joining the Poole Pirates in 1965. In 1969 and 1970, he represented New Zealand in tests with England, and in 1971, he rode for Great Britain in matches with Poland.
