I know this is a long shot by far.
At a South East regional held at Hayes I managed to beat Gary Llewelyn (coz he fell off!) in a heat. Some weeks later I was told by a fellow rider that there was a photo of that particular race in BMX Bi-Weekly.
If my memory serves me correctly my number plate was 4482 and I was most likely wearing a white open face helmet with black Haro visor, possibly a black or white JT mouthguard, name Peter Murrell. My bike was a chrome Star (pre-GHP), gold araya 7x's...
I have a feeling this race was possibly between Sept - Nov between 1984-85. Any help would be appreciated.
