Long live San Clemente Cyclery

Established in 1974 I was stoked to go to his bike shop as a little kid with my brother Steve. Going to his shop Êsince the late 1970s was like going to a candy store with all of the different bikes and different people that I got see and experience. John to me was like another brother and friend and a role model just as my own brothers and sisters. I have so many great experiences with John he was a excellent athlete in many sports, surfing and riding being a couple of them. John was always happy and would always take the time to talk with me when I came in. He will be missed by so many people and touched so many people he has inspired me to reopen my own surf gallery and more importantly carry on the simple business approach he had with his own business. John was on my mind Saturday and Sunday and even when my brother stopped by my surf gallery I wanted to asked if he stopped by Johns but I didn't. After talking with my brother he even mentioned he thought about stopping by but didn't. All I can say is John was talking to allot of people he loved and cared about and we all heard him one way or another.
I will miss him Êand I realize our bodies will die but our spirit lives on forever. He is smiling at all of us and is happy to see all of the love and support.
Enjoy today and don't worry about tomorrow.
To one of my heroes- JOHN C of SAN CLEMENTE CYCLERY

The custom surfboard in 2008

I don't know about you people but when was the last time you walked into a so called surf shop and actually talked to someone who knows what there talking about and I'm not just talking long boards or short boards but everything in between. ÊThe days of talking to a shaper in a so called surf shop are down to 2% if you believe in luck. ÊThe difference between my surf gallery and 98% of all the surf shops is you will not be sold a board that does not fit your needs. ÊIf you want a custom motorcycle were do you go? If you want a custom surfboard made for where you surf and how you surf than San Clemente Surfboards is a great start for a custom board for you or one off the rack. ÊWe carry all shapes and sizes and new boards coming in every week. ÊFour new 9ft high performance longboards coming soon these boards are research and development boards that I have designed off of one of my personal boards. ÊNext up will be some 9'3 and 9' 6 performance boards. ÊWe will be carrying all shapes and sizes from the past to the present.Ê

So enjoy the ride of life one day and one ride at a time.
