Movember Contest – Stickers – Lube – Gnomes

Send Fat-Bike Action photos and videos to uncle gomez@fat-bike.com and everyone that includes their snail mail address, will receive some stickers. We’ll also hold a drawing of all of the folks that send us photos or videos to win an assortment of schwag. Put Movember in the subject line of your email and don’t forget to remember to include your address. We’ll draw the winner on New Years Day 2017. We’ll keep you up to date with prizes, but I know we have tires that we’ve tested that need new homes and I’m sure we’ll find some nice things to give out to 3 lucky winners.
