FatBiking Minnesota's Iron Range

11/30/2013

9 a.m. 

We started with 8...... We had 10 after a bit. 3 guys had to bail. We were 7 strong for the remander of the ride. 

A near perfect day.... Highs in the mid to upper 20's and not a lot of wind. Perfect snow conditions...... Ice on local lakes was thick enough, with the perfect amount of snow on top. 

Well, Nick found out how much he could fish tail his FatBike!!!! Lol 

Just playing with ya pal!! 

A nice mix of young and old, and plenty of BS's and joking was had!! Ha Ha 

These are just the shots I took before my phone froze. 

I'll post more as I get them!! 

Thanks to all that showed, and those that didn't...... There will be another; I don't exactly know when, but it'll happen. 

Very little words, because the pictures speak for themselves!!

Why FatBikes Could Be For You!

A nice article (obviously about the big boy tire bikes), from People for Bikes.
FatBikes, whatever flavor at not a fad........ at least NOT in this household!!
Pedal what ya got......... There will be haters..... But at least you, if you pedal a FatBike...... Will have a bigger smile........ And know what it means to truly be free to pedal anywhere your legs can take you!!
Pedal On.... FatBikes!!!!!

Same Old; and I'm Perfectly Happy With It

I've gone through my posts since starting this blog and it seems like my "dark-time" riding has always begun with this frozen creek; and then it's only a week or two at most till I'm pedaling across a frozen lake!! 

Same old same old!! 

Funny thing is........ It hasn't gotten old!! 

I think it has something to do with the bike??!! 

Ha Ha 

Happy FAT TIRE Friday!!
