Tour De Fat

So while we were down in Fort Collins, it just so happened that the yearly Tour De Fat was going on. The Tour is a bike celebration put on by the New Belgium brewer (maker of Fat Tire among others). Bikes of all shapes, sizes and designs are aloud to take part in the "parade" which ends at the New Belgium brewery. At the brewery grounds they have music and food and of course beer available for purchase and enjoyment. This year we just stopped by quickly to get a feel for it, and are planning on returning next year with bikes and theme in hand.

First up picture wise is the schedule for the day:

Here is a creative bike... makes you wonder how the kid gets up there!

They also had a little bike "park" for some creatively designed and constructed bikes that were available for anyone who wanted to ride them.

Best of all, in good Colorado fashion was the recycle/trash/compost tent, of which there were many, all of whom were staffed, so you know exactly where to put what type of trash, so that there was no confusion.

That's it for this post, check back next time for a picture from outside our bedroom (its a pretty amazing view) followed by our trip to the Snowy Range mountains.

I'll see you where the roads meet.
