Hyland Park Ride! Converting New Trikers in Minneapolis | Van & Trike Tour”

After a very hot and restless night parked behind Freewheel Bicycle in Bloomington, Minnesota, I linked up with Chris—the manager of this awesome recumbent-friendly shop—for a morning ride around Hyland Park and the scenic QBP Trail. Minnesota has some seriously beautiful cycling routes, and this spot is no exception. Before Chris arrived, I met an older gentleman in the parking lot who was curious about my AZUB TiFly X. After a quick intro, he gave the trike a spin… and I think we may have converted another future recumbent rider. 😄 Moments like that are what make this tour special. This episode is part of the continuing 2025 Van & Trike Tour, where I travel North America meeting riders, visiting shops, and spotlighting the trike community. Freewheel Bicycle is one of the most important shops in the Minneapolis region—carrying trikes, supporting adaptive cycling, and offering a welcoming vibe for all types of riders. If you’re in the area, stop by the Bloomington location and say “JaYoe!” Join me and Chris as we explore Hyland Park, talk about Freewheel’s role in the cycling community, and ride through some of the best suburban trails in Minnesota. 🗺️ Follow the Van & Trike Tour Map: https://bit.ly/vantriketour 🎁 50% Off Your Own Journey Map: https://bit.ly/mappromo 🚴 Ride by AZUB: https://azub.eu @azubrecumbents 🏪 Freewheel Bicycle: https://www.freewheelbike.com @freewheelbike1610 📍 Quality Bicycle Products: https://www.qbp.com @QualityBikeProducts JaYoe! ——— SUPPORT ME ——— PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/JaYoe BUY ME A COFFEE: https://ko-fi.com/jayoe SHOP ON JAYOE: https://jayoe.com/jayoe-gear-and-merch/ SEND ME ON WECHAT: http://jayoe.com/wechat/ JAYOE MEMBERSHIP: https://www.youtube.com/JaYoeNation/join ⸻ Follow me on the Internets… WEBSITE: http://www.jayoe.com WECHAT: mattyg BilliBIlli: https://space.bilibili.com/100182773 Douyin: 加油马特 Toutiao: http://toutiao.com/m1681328028969998/ YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/JaYoeNation FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/JaYoeLife/ INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jayoelife/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/jayoelife REDBUBBLE STORE: https://www.redbubble.com/shop/jayoe PERSONAL FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/mcgalat PODCAST: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/podcast-jayoe!/id1044254053?mt=2 STRAVA: https://www.strava.com/athletes/21659886 GARMIN: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/profile/JaYoeLife ⸻ ——— TRIKE BREAKDOWN ——— I ride an AZUB Ti-FLY X recumbent trike — here’s a full detailed breakdown of my build: ▶️ Watch the full trike breakdown video: https://youtu.be/oIdLzM4EtaA ——— JAYOE MERCHANDISE ON REDBUBBLE ——— https://www.redbubble.com/shop/jayoe ⸻ —–– WHAT DOES JAYOE MEAN? ——— https://youtu.be/4m7t4Vt1Ir8 ⸻ —–– OTHER SERIES ON THE JAYOE NATION —–– CLIMB UP MOUNT EVEREST – Watch my Everest summit expedition! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCXSKSR1qp-vsnzp_JW0t7Os2EEkyjt_P RIDE ACROSS KOREA – Watch me ride across South Korea! https://jayoe.com/south-korea/ MARATHON IN NORTH KOREA – Join me as I run a marathon in North Korea, DPRK! https://youtu.be/DJxsu10VNwA RIDE ACROSS JAPAN – Watch me cycle across Japan! https://jayoe.com/japan/ RIDE ACROSS TAIWAN – Watch me cycle across Taiwan! https://jayoe.com/taiwan/ VLOGGER 1on1 – Interviewing unique vloggers from around the world http://jayoe.com/vlogger1on1/ #JaYoe #RecumbentTrike #AZUB #CyclingLife #RideAZUB #Rohloff #Shimano #Ortlieb #Schwalbe #TektroBrakes #TrikeTouring #BikeTouring #CyclingAdventure #HumanPowered #AdventureTravel #VanAndTrikeTour @azubrecumbents @rideshimano @rohloff @OrtliebWaterproof @schwalbetires @tektrobrakes
