Nikita Solenov made a short video from a Surf/Bike trip to Hoddevik, Norway.

Fat (video) Tuesday – Skating Away
It’s a crazy smoove frozen world out there. Skates and studs do a pretty good imitation of flight in today’s F(v)T presentation by Jay Glass.

Kit Monsen made a movie about a bike trip he calls the Tour de Dovre that includes a recipe for Reindeer Stew. Don’t worry if you can’t get a tasty reindeer, you can substitute venison, lamb, or carne de gnome in a pinch. It’s like a cooking show and a fat-bike video all wrapped in […]
The Slippery Peak of the Witch (Video)
A few weeks back I set off to do this bikepacking trip but bailed as I wasn’t in the ‘zone’. I was pretty gutted as the weather was perfect, no wind, no cloud and the chance of a great sunrise. Fast forward 4 weeks and I wasn’t going to let it go as I again […]

The Real Fat Tuesday
Dr. John – Iko Iko – spurred a thought in my imagination that could possibly address the rumblings that folks from around the interwebs share with us about the timing of Global Fat Bike Day and the dicey conditions that early December can sometimes present.

Fat (video) Tuesday – GFBD in Brazil’s Fat-Bike Paradise!
Inevitably, some of our readers contact us about Global Fat Bike Day and aren’t shy about telling us how the date (the first Saturday in December) doesn’t make sense because of the weather and soft trail conditions. I experienced some of those hurdles at my own GFBD ride. We had to meet at sunrise (7 […]

This is just Pat Smage (10-time US MotoTrials National Champion) being his usual champagne supernova. Riding his Fatback Skookum so freak’n smoove!

PNW Components: […]

Bikepacking Laggan Loch Ossian to Loch Treig via Corrour Bikepacking Laggan Loch Ossian to Loch Treig via Corrour – by Illya Rudkin
Bikepacking like other similar pursuits is I think you would agree about the adventure and what you may hope to find.
