This column is all about fat-bike history! I really dig checking in on stuff that happened at the beginning of the fat-bike craze! Fat-bike.com was there! Were we saying “it’s not a fad!” back then? Well, obviously, it isn’t! Reliving the “good ol’ days” while writing these columns sure brings back good memories and reminds me that there are many more to come!
This Week in Fatbike History
The following links and commentary are from the Weekly Dose of Fat published on 5-18-12! Yes, they all still work. 13 years ago and are still available on the web! Fat-biking history endures!
Let us begin…
Yes, we’ve been doing stickers for many years and readers have sent in photos from all over the world where they’ve either slapped a sticker up or spotted on in the wild. If you see one out there somewhere send us a pic! [email protected].
