Lynnwood Socks
Description: If you lived in the greater Seattle area in the mid to late '80s, then you probably remember seeing the occasional TV ad for a rock 'n roll hair salon called Rockutz. With an infectious heavy metal jingle that screamed “Rockutz… look like a staaaarrrrrrr!!!!,” it stuck with you, and if you ever decided that you (or your whole band) needed a new hair metal inspired hair do, then you knew that you needed to make the trip out to Rockutz so that you could look like a star.
Description: Bent Bike was started in 1974 when four friends began buying and selling used motorcycles and parts out of an old gas station in Edmonds, Washington. It didn't take long before the guys began buying closeout, surplus, and bankruptcy stock and further expanded into new parts and riding gear. Having outgrown the old gas station, Bent Bike built a new building in 1980 just down the road in Lynnwood, and in 1984 opened a second location in Auburn. Despite the new buildings filled with new stock, Bent Bike never got out of the motorcycle salvage business, and continued to sell used parts, as well as used bikes throughout their 42 years in business.
