Learn How To Have Fun & Be Safe!
These camps are an immersive winter experience with expert winter fat bikers. Learn the gear, techniques, and saftey of riding a snow bike and camping on snow trails.
Fat Pursuit Workshop - January 8-10, 2024
Fat Pursuit Camp is meant to give participants taking part in the Fat Pursuit, but not limited to those participants, an opportunity to test gear, acclimate to the environment and elevation and learn additional winter travel cycling tips and tricks. We will also give you a little more insight to the Fat Pursuit itself and ride some of the course!
We will touch base on many winter expedition traveling aspects but spend most of our time discussing, practicing and learning things we feel are most important to get to the finish line of an event where efficient travel and taking care of yourself becomes most important for ones success.
This is an incredible way to boost your confidence and give yourself a "shake down" before the Fat Pursuit if you are participating in it!
