Has anyone ever ridden fat bikes on the dunes between Yuma, Arizona, and the Salton Sea? Or the Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado? If so, send us photos and a short ride report to [email protected]
That’s this week’s Fat-Bike Question of the Week! Got a story, a photo, or a hot take? Toss it in the comments—we’d love to hear it. And keep your eyes peeled… a fresh question rolls out every week!

There is a Sand dune along the edge of Lake Erie. It’s so steep and so high that I couldn’t imagine Fat Biking on it but I have taken my snowboard down it.
Silver Lake Sand dunes on the West side of Michigan is open for riding during the offseason (winter). It’s a great place to ride a fatbike, especially when the sand/snow mix together! Surfaces can vary considerably due to the mixing, from super soft windblown mix to rockhard frozen sand. Fun is relative?

You are right about that! Silver Lake is a very cool spot to ride. We’ve been in that area several times and will be back again.
