    From my experience most races have a fat bike rider catagory. Normally sweating away towards the back of the field. It’s usually my category of choice.

    it’ll be my “coming out of retirement for the 16th time” race, and I’ll not put any money up against John in a straight race, a joust maybe 🙂

    It’s only a half fat and a single speed, which means your got twice the distance to cover Hendy.

    I was thinking today about taking the Singular but it now looks like I’ve been bulied into going fat again this year as well as last year?

    Don’t know if he/they are aware of here – but was in Hebden Bridge ‘Blazing Saddles’ on Sunday and there was someone from ‘on one’ on a prototype fat tyre bike.
    Didn’t catch the name, but they kindly let me have a play up and down the street – looks like it could be good fun :).

    Anyway, could be worth giving them a shout :).
