I worked for Al Goldsmith in 1972-4, back when he and wife Susan were growing Bikecology into a multishop chain with mail order on the side. He later bought Supergo and adopted the name for his entire operation. I am a bit surprised by the announcement, since he is the sort of guy who really seems to enjoy running his own company. Incidentally, Performance has bought out several San Diego area bike shops.
