Continue to make history and be a part of FORC's second Fatbike challenge, the Frozen Fat Fondo Festival! The FFFFestival will be held -- rain or shine, snow or slime -- on the beautiful shores of the Mississippi River at the newly rebuilt Credit Island Lodge (for real this time). Riders will test their mettle on a circuit featuring technical challenges through thick lowland forest and chunky river shoreline on this 3 hour endurance ride. Participate as a 3-person relay team or go solo. 3.5" tires or greater required! Stick around after the main event for even more shenanigans and tomfoolery. All proceeds from this event benefit FORC to continue maintaining and improving local trails.
