Name shop: Planet Bicycle
Location: Atlantic Beach, Fl.
Employees: Just me and my partner Ed for now.
Did you ever go to school to learn how to run a (BMX) business or did you just 'send it'?
Planet Bicycle: No specific schooling. Over the past 30 years I’ve just worked in a few shops with different minds running them. I’ve taken the stuff that fit me from each and went with it.
Were your BMX industry contacts already made before you started your shop, or did you meet more people along the way?
Planet Bicycle: Over the years my contacts list has grown exponentially.
Who are some of the people that helped out in the beginning, setting up the BMX shop?
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
