Crazy vending machines aren't just for Japan any more...

In the beautiful state of Wisconsin, Trek has begun implementing its new idea to add ease and convenience to the cycling experience. Trek's new "Trek Stop" is essentially a bicycle vending machine, dispensing basic bike parts like tubes, patch kits, lube, etc. etc. Complete with a work stand, air compressor, and instructions on how to do simple repairs; these rad little kiosks are yet another way bicycles are on their way to becoming more accepted as a viable mode of transportation in the mainstream American culture.
