Kyle Newman (born 14 December 1991) is an English speedway rider.
Career
Born in Poole, Newman has ridden for a variety of clubs during a career that began in 2009. He's most well known for riding for his hometown club the Poole Pirates in the Elite League. He initially had a spell with them in 2011 and then returned in 2014 after the introduction of 'fast track reserves' a system designed to aid the development of young British riders. It worked out well for Newman who was voted the Pirates rider of the year in a vote on the Bournemouth Echo website. He earned 60% of the vote, in second place Maciej Janowski earned 31% of the vote.[1] After a successful season in 2014 it was no surprise that Poole decided to bring Newman back into the team for 2015.
