Fat Fest 9.9

First, this beauty showed up on Valentines Day. The delay in getting it posted up here was due to the fact that the internal cable routing mandated some TLC from Tyson at Penn Cycle (Bloomington). I will be riding for the Trek Mountain Co-Op again this year and am very excited about that!

A few days later some tread showed up. I am pumped about the new Bonti XR3. Is it sad that Tegan thinks the UPS guy only delivers bikes and bike stuff?More details to come later on the bike (weight, spec etc), tires, and equipment for this year....

Then Sunday I headed up for "Fat Tire Fest" in Elk River. Rich Ohmdahl always puts on a great show, and this race, the third in the series, is where the the Fat Tire Fest Champion is crowned. The weather held off up there for the race, but I drove home in an insane blizzard. As far as the race goes, I did my best to hold everyone off in the conditions that were either awesomely perfect or a skating rink (depending on the part of the trail) and no where in between. I did end up taking the race win and the series win. To top it off, 2 more riders on 907s, Charly Tri and Hollywood, rounded out the podium...I am just sayin' ;)
Oh, and while the awards took FOREVER to start, the results were hilarious w/ Jag-Richie (as in Jagermeister) showing his face. I think you had to be there to know what I am talking about=) LOL.
Below is the only pick I could find for now. I will post more as they are available.In other news, Casey and Tegan are growing too fast...

Now, back to shoveling.
