Siegfried Wustrow (7 May 1936 – 26 November 2023)[1] was a German cyclist. He began his career in the early 1950s as an all-rounder, competing in road and cross-country races. However, he had his best achievements in motor-paced racing, winning two silver medals at the UCI Motor-paced World Championships in 1960 and 1961 and the national title in 1961.[2][3]

After retirement he operated a taxi company in Leipzig and was organizing cycling events.[4]
