Omgmrj, there is still time to buy fatties! Chop the canti-mounts off your 1x1.

...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? :wink:

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. =)

Oh, they're coming off all right, but I won't have my phat wheels until sometime in Q1 2012.

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. :D
