David John McAllan (born 20 June 1980 in Edinburgh, Scotland)[1] is a former professional motorcycle speedway rider from Scotland.[2]
McAllan at the age of 15, first rode in the British leagues for Berwick Bandits in the 1996 Speedway Conference League. The Berwickshire High School pupil was able to obtain a licence because the rules had been changed that year, reducing the minimum age from 16 to 15.[3]
He has represented Scotland at international level and is a former Scottish Junior Champion. In 2000, he broke a bone in his back while riding for Stoke Potters and this followed on from knee surgery.[4]
McAllan was unable to ride following an accident which almost paralysed him at Ashfield Stadium in 2007 while riding for Glasgow Tigers.[5]
