The Weekly Dose – FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!

Five years ago to the day, Sven/Greg posted the very first in our news digest series called the Weekly Dose of Fat. Check out what the fat-bike news looked like back in October of 2011 – https://fat-bike.com/2011/10/weekly-dose-of-fat/.

Homey Fall (down) Fest is this weekend and it’s Halloween, here in the US of A, so costume rides and maybe some bike camping are on the agenda over the weekend.

Here’s a photo I snapped of Sven back in 2014 at an event called Fat Camp. That was before we had a podcast called Fat Camp. That’s Mike from ZuZu Pedals riding behind Sven. We’ll be back next week with show #113 of the Weekly Dose of Fat – Fat-Bike Radio Revival Hour with Beards, Bikes and Beer (in any order you like).
