Omgmrj, there is still time to buy fatties! Chop the canti-mounts off your 1x1.
...Cargo bike with Big Fat Larry tires?

...Cargo bike with Big Fat Larry tires? Whoops, missed the 3+ portion of the post. I'm in mrj's boat with 2.1s. The bike will outweigh all the other bikes, that makes it a fatty right?

The race is for fat tires, but I'm sure there will be an opportunity to ride the course with other bikes. If you've been watching the Freewheel facebook we have a few pics of the obstacles. I'd love to see someone rip those up on a cargo bike. =)

First of all, great party, man. Thanks for organizing this shindig, y'all. Fire ramp was also a great idea, Santa. Night ended in a bit more shenanigans than originally planned. Nick (I don't remember/know your bikelove handle), I hope you got home ok. Next time we won't go to Palmer's. Or maybe actually stick to our promises. I had a ton of fun, though.
