Ivan, you were my first sporting idol from the first time I went to watch Speedway at The County Ground in Exeter. Those fabulous Monday evenings and Bank Holiday afternoons of the 70's watching you wearing Falcons colours knowing you were the best in the world at that time was incredible. You always made time to come to the Grandstand afterwards to speak to the Supporters, and especially us young kids. I was only 3 or 4 years old, and now soon to be 50, but I will never forget the time you spent with us. Thank You!! Rest in Peace now Champ xxxxxx
