    Peter Ploen?

    I'm trying to track down Peter Ploen, champion motocross rider from the early to mid 1970s. If anyone knows where I can contact him, please PM me.

    Also trying to track down Ivan Miller, also an MX rider from that era.

    Thanks.

    1870's?

    Perhaps check rest homes and retirement complexes?

    He can still be seen tearing up Moto-X tracks round the contry on his RM370. Does the VMX scene with style.

    For some reason I have heard that name recently. Any hoo, if you haven't already, I just googled him & he pops up in two VMX forums, well discussion & photos. Might be worth posting.

    Useful you say? Here you go then...

    Religion is like the male nipple: it has survived years of human evolution despite having no useful purpose.

    Ivan spent a long time in the UK - i've no idea if he came back.
    The family was Blenheim though - several cousins raced MX as well so the name will be known there.
