Anthony Doyle MBE
Anthony Doyle MBE is British former professional cyclist 1980-1995. He was world pursuit champion in 1980 and 1986. He became a regular in six day track racer during the 1980s, winning 23 six days. As a result, he was and still is Britain's most successful six day rider and received a MBE for services to cycling in 1989.
In 1989 Tony Doyle suffered from a serious head injury and multiple fractures at the Munich Six day. He was given the last rites and was in a coma for ten days. He spent six weeks in ITU, followed by two months in a rehabilitation centre. Due to the extent of his injuries it was predicted that he would be unable to return to professional racing. However, against all odds, he took silver in the team pursuit at the 1994 Commonwealth Games in Victoria, Canada. He is an active supporter of Headway Surrey and has given motivational talks on his injury to survivors of brain injury at Headway Surrey to encourage them on their rehabilitation journey.
