One of the last remaining roller skating rinks in the Bay Area is about to close its doors for good. After 47 years in business, Golden Skate in San Ramon will close at the end of July.

"What makes it so beautiful is just the freedom. You know, you just do what you do, you feel what you feel, and you just go for it," said Richard Humphrey.

He started roller skating as a kid in the 1950s and discovered Golden Skate in the 90s, which is where he earned the nickname "Roller Dance Man."
