Triumph, Harley and (yes!) Honda dealer Skip Fordyce set up shop in 1941 in Riverside, California after a career in daredevil riding during the 1930s. Within a few years and following a move to larger premises at 3698 14th Street, Fordyce was popularly credited with having America’s largest motorcycle dealership. The Fordyce Riverside Harley dealership was sold in 2013.
I moved to 13th street in Riverside when I was 12 and was only a couple of blocks away from Skip Fordyce motorcycles. I loved motorcycles and use to go there all the time and sit on different bikes and hung around there. Triumphs, Hondas and Harley. What a cool place it was . No one ever told mer to get out , lol.
