Ever buy a recumbent bike or trike in an old theater? Lots of folks in Iowa have done just that at the Connecticut Yankee Pedaller in Chariton. Come along as we meet Dave Hendricks at his family owned business on the town square. We talk to Dave about the history of his shop, take a tour of the amazing building and take a beautiful sunset test ride to explore the area. Videography by Tray Bourgoyne. |

One of the oldest and most revered recumbent bike shops in America is now under new management. We go to Steven's Point, Wisconsin to take an in depth look at the place where thousands have purchased bikes, trikes and accessories over the years. We interview the new owner and her team, take a tour of the shop and test ride an ICE Sprint trike along the Wisconsin river.

Sportcrafters' Pete Colan on Trike Trainers and XShifter
|
|
Pete Colan has been designing and manufacturing bike trainers for 25 years and trike specific rollers for over 12 years. They are made at his northern Indiana shop with parts almost all locally sourced. We talk to Pete about how trainers can be an important part of keeping you riding when the conditions outside are less than ideal. He also now distributes the electronic shifting product we've been following called X-Shifter so we ask for an update. We have the inspirational William Galloway who has been criss crossing the USA for the last couple of years on his trike showing how folks with brain injuries can lead an interesting and adventurous life. He is currently in Utah riding in some very harsh winter conditions.
