Mine too. My best friend had a candy blue Trick Star. Oh how I envied that bike.

Woody Itson is such a ruler.....

Always wanted a Hutch, but had to settle first for a Mongoose then a Redline. Hutch was based out of Baltimore, MD?

Cool ad. I had a used 24" Schwinn Predator. I think minimum wage was $3.75 an hr.
Thanks

Correct, a bike shop 1st, Profile out of FL built their frames for a while, also built the 1st Hutch cranks.

I still have my Hutch cruiser

I have a 88 Master, debating whether to restore/keep as "Survivor" or build up in my style. I have everything to keep as a it was, and really leaning towards that.

Pretty sure they never had a shop. Rich and Thelma Hutchins used to sell parts out of a trailer at the local races in MD. Their sons raced MX and BMX. We would make the trek to MD to race all the time and see them at the track. That address in Pasadena was their home they bought when Hutch really took off. We used to go there sometimes after races and jump our bikes into the water off the dock.

Great poster. I had a couple of redlines and a diamond back growing up, all long gone. A few years ago I bought and "restored" a diamond back viper. It was small though so I gave it to a girlfriend

Now I have a Star (pretty rare I think, the company evolved into GHP) waiting for the same treatment.

let's see if i can remember the list of bikes i owned...

mongoose california
cw californian
haro fst
hutch trickstar (not candy apple red but i always wanted one)
haro sport
kuwahara bravo kt
general rl osbourne pro
haro master

some vintage DMC

quite possibly the best movie ever

and the best ever (imho) flatlander of them all:

oh ya, almost forgot about my red suede vision street wear shoes that dyed every pair of socks i owned pink....

Star Bars, Greg Hill started (or his Dad) then created GHP (and GHP is in production again)

If you look close at my Hutch Cruiser, you will notice that the forks are GHP (I kept breaking Hutch forks)..

Really? Awesome! My neighbor said he found a guy fetching ~$1500 for the ones he had in excellent condition. That is stupid (good) money for a used bicycle.
