Mr Leper? had the water hose for us to drink from thru his fence. He was friends with Ryan who later joined the Marines. Craig lived near the water fountain and had I think Dalmations. Got to be friends with a couple of the locals Ryan and Craig. When they filled in the bowl area, the lines I remember where named colossus, jawbreaker and suicide. I was one of the kids that helped turn the “Lakebed” into a track. In fact when my cruiser got stolen I bought Rob’s old Floval Flyer this was around 1987-88.

In 1977 it appears they released their first production bike, the SR. Dennis went on to fame racing for Redline and Cooks Bros. Early riders included “The Red Baron” himself, Dennis Dain. Being close to such a early and famous track helped launch the shop into sponsoring a team.
