Barry Woodland is a British former Grand Prix motorcycle road racer.[1][2]

Woodland won the "Grovewood Award" in 1976.[3] The award was given by the motoring press to the rider showing most promise as best young rider of the year.

In 1977 he was sponsored by Mitsui UK,[4] the British Yamaha Importers, on both 250cc and 350cc machines. He competed in Europe, North and South America up until 1985.

Woodland won the Production D class at the Isle of Man TT three times in a row (1986, 1987, and 1988).[5][6] His most commonly used bike was the Loctite Yamaha.[7][5]

Woodland retired from motor bike racing in 1991.
