Voodoo Cycles was founded by Mountain Bike Hall Of Famer Joe Murray, one of the first 8 inductees, a list that includes Tom Ritchey, Gary Fisher, Charlie Kelly, Charlie Cunningham, Jacquie Phelan, Joe Breeze, Steve Cook, and Mike Sinyard (Founder of Specialized bikes.) Every Voodoo model has frame geometry (and hence handling) developed over decades by one of the world\'s most experienced and successful racers.
Todays Voodoos add modern advancements like Scandium, a jumping frame model, and many other state-of-the-art innovations, for cutting edge performance, circa 2005!
Now you know that the legendary and amazing zen-like, magic-carpet-ride of Voodoo bikes are the result of a lifetime of research and devopment by Joe on race courses and epic trails world-wide. But just who is this Joe Murray guy?
Growing up in Marin County in the 70\'s, Joe was fortunate to be exposed to this thriving cycling community, considered one of the birthplaces of mountain biking. Starting out road racing with a local club, he realized a strong interest competitive cycling. Yet, it was not until his discovery of off road riding, later to become known as mountain biking, did he realize his true interest. His first race at the age of 15 was the \"Zero\'s Notch Race\", a gathering of locals, minimal organization, riders wearing Levi\'s and no helmets, yet the avant guarde of the time. Joe was riding a Schwinn Cruiser one speed up graded with drum brakes and deraillers, the typical ride at the time, finished 1st \"novice\". Such was the early scene, since the only other class was expert. These experts were the likes of Joe Breeze and Gary Fisher, (local heavies) about to realize the beginnings of a cycling revolution.
It was in \'83 racing in the largest and most popular mountain bike race, the Rockhopper, Joe finished 4th. Relatively unknown, Joe was soon noticed as someone to reckon with. Sure enough, next year Joe established himself as the one to beat. In 1984 Joe had 8 straight victories, 15 victories for the year and finishing it off as NORBA National Champion. The next year, continuing his success with 12 straight victories (unmatched by any male in mountain bike racing) and a second National Championship. During these two years time Joe established himself as almost unbeatable and the first star of the newly emerging sport of mountain biking. Joe\'s interests did not stop at racing. Not only a two time National champion for Fisher Mountainbikes, but as test rider and work in product development. He then continued his career as bicycle designer for Marin
Mountain Bikes, Merlin, Kona and finally VooDoo. Joe officially retired from racing in \'90.
