James Toseland from World Superbike champion to celebrity dancer

What does a two-time World Superbike champion like James Toseland do with his spare time after being forced to retire from racing last year following his wrist injury?The former rider got married on Saturday with singer Katie Melua at the Nash Conservatory at The Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew, West London.

He still continues to tinkle the ivories with his group Crash (he was also featured on RainBands single Rise Again for the Marco Simoncelli Foundation), does ambassador work for Donington Park and helps raise funds and donations for charities, and it looks like he may be one of the celebrities and the first motorcyle racer to take part in BBC’s show Strictly Come Dancing.
