Andre Hartmann has owned Ramsey Bike and Ski for 44 years, NorthJersey.com reports.

The shop quickly expanded to sell bicycles as well, since skiing season alone was too short.

Hartmann and his wife, Margrit, also opened up shops in Greenwich Village, Brooklyn Heights and Colt’s Neck.

The store in Ramsey, meanwhile, relocated twice, starting at 19 E. Main St. in 1976, moving down the road to 150 E. Main and currently residing at 44A E. Main.

Hartmann, a resident of Belleville, plans to liquidate the remainder of his store’s stock and collect the rest of his customers’ equipment rentals before calling it quits.
