Bike "hotels" in the US?

I'm not sure if this is the right forum, I apologize if it's not. I was in Italy last year and stated at Hotel Funivia. This is a cycling hotel, so most people there were cyclist and the hotel would organize rides every day for us to go on. It was amazing and a great way to see the area.

Are there such places in the US? I know Hincapie has one (Hotel Domestique), but it's super expensive. I'm thinking of a week long cycling trip in the US (I'm from Canada) in 2016 and so I am doing some research. I like mountains but am good anywhere.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

David.

Not where I've Been ..

IYHA Hostels Often have Bike Sheds to park your Bike.. and Hostels are less than Hotels

particularly when in a Shared Bunk room rather than a Private One ..

You might be better off looking at a tour group that does cycling trips. Adventure cycling and some other groups have fully supported bike tours out of B&Bs or motels. The lodging would not be specific to cycling, but the daily activity of riding would be. REI Travel also has some cycling trips. I have done two REI cycling trips in Europe and will likely do a third within a couple years.

Great idea. I was looking at Trek Travel, but I'll check out Adventure and REI too.

At least one of the touring companies (backroads?) can supply you with a bike during their tours. IIRC, it's on the pricy side, but includes everything (meals, motels, lunch, snacks, SAG).
