1975 East Bay BMX & Skateboard History
"A Little East Bay Greese"
My Old Shop
CooL Bike & Board roots go back to the mid 70's.
I owned a bicycle and skate board shop on Lake Merritt in Oakland Ca.
The name. "Grand Lake Bike Shop" Go figure?
Fresh out of the U.S Army 19 years old and starting a new venture.
It was a very exciting time. The start of a great explosion in skateboarding and BMX.
I had just started to sponsor a small BMX and Skate Board Team.
Mountain Bikes
School Boy Racers started to make it big. Built out of larger frames and fat tires.
Most always a single speed. Not like the mountain bikes of today.
They were a lot of fun building and riding. And within most everyone's budget.
Built for us old guys to race. 18 to 25 year old mental cases.
In any case, this was the start of what we now call mountain biking.
BMX
BMX bikes had 20" frames and tires with kids at the wheel. Just barely evolved
out of stingray handle bars and banana seats it seemed. I remember mine.
The kids and the new BMX bikes had taken hold. Man those kids could ride.
California BMX manufacturers coming out of the wood work.
Motorcycle Moto-X had to do with the quick explosion of BMX.
It did not take any time to grow. It seemed like overnight.
Skateboarding
Skateboarding was getting a good foothold also.34 years ago.
It was just amazing what the guys could do on a board. Tricks, Pools and Hills.
Remember the 70's drought? A boarders dream!
We didn't have as many dry pools like the like the SoCal DogTown crew had.
What we had, Big Hills. If you have ever been to the Bay it has some big hills.
Skate one and completely destroy a new set of wheels.
Crash and you destroyed everything else.
If you can remember this your vintage. If you know anything about this time
you know it truly was a start of many good things to come.
The Goal!
To help develop and share good times with a new generation.
Introduce alternatives in the sport and help expand the availability to do so.
To help educate all that want to learn the skills to maintain there bike or board.
And open the door to compete in organized events.
CooL!
In today economy we all need to re-experience El Dorado County
and what it has to offer in outdoor recreation.
Outdoors for Everyone.
El Dorado County outdoor opportunities are very diversified.
Why not make Boarding and BMX part of the excitement?
Come on people. Light'en up!
I watched Skateboarding and BMX from it's start. I'm sure none of us will see it's end.
We intend to fill a gap for quality, service & products.
With Old School Attitude.
Be CooL! On The Divide.
