0:00 In the heart of Wisconsin sits a shop
0:03 that's more than just a bike store. It's
0:05 a community, a workshop, and a
0:08 destination.
0:10 This is the Hostel Shoppe, your one-stop
0:13 ride hub for bikes, trikes, and
0:15 everything in between.
0:18 For over 50 years, this family run shop
0:21 has been serving cyclists with quality
0:23 service, expert advice, and a selection
0:26 that's hard to beat.
0:29 They weren't just early adopters of
0:31 trikes. They made it their focus. Today,
0:34 recumbent and their accessories account
0:36 for more than 80% of their business. And
0:39 it's powered by people who know their
0:40 stuff. Jessie's been here for over 30
0:44 years. Scott 25, Leon just about the
0:49 same.
0:50 Stevens Point is the perfect place for
0:52 test rides, too, with the Green Circle
0:55 Trail just down the road and a private
0:57 test track right on site.
1:04 The selection, one of the biggest in the
1:06 country. Over 90 recumbents in stock
1:09 from eight global brands. ICE, Catrike,
1:13 Azub, HP Velotechnik, Hase, and more.
1:17 And they're all right here, ready for
1:19 you to ride. But it's not just about the
1:22 trikes. They've got a massive inventory
1:25 of accessories and parts to make your
1:27 ride uniquely yours. And if you're not
1:29 local, no worries. They're one of the
1:32 few dealers in the country authorized to
1:34 ship fully assembled trikes. And this
1:36 place doesn't just sell trikes, they
1:38 build community. Their Pedal Point Rally
1:41 is one of the longest running recumbent
1:43 events in the country, raising tens of
1:46 thousands of dollars for local charities
1:48 like the Boys and Girls Club and Spokes
1:51 Fighting Strokes.
1:55 They support PASTA, the Point Area Single
1:58 Track Association.
2:00 Their GM, Scott Cole, is a proud PASTA
2:04 member and helps to organize the local
2:06 Standing Rocks Enduro mountain bike
2:08 race.
2:10 They also host free adaptive cycling
2:12 clinics and support veterans through VA
2:14 programs, making cycling more accessible
2:17 to more people. So whether you're just
2:19 getting into cycling, rediscovering it,
2:22 or looking for the perfect ride, The
2:25 Hostel Shoppe has the gear, the heart, and
2:28 the people to get you there. Come for
2:31 the bikes, stay for the community, and
2:33 maybe leave with us something that'll
