Fat Bike Race Calendar
This list contains fat bike races mostly in the western states. I will try to update the list when I hear of cancellations but be sure to go direct to the race website to make sure it’s still on!
If I am missing a race please let me know and I will add it.
As a resident of a small town in Wyoming that has been inundated with out-of-state visitors this year, I’d like to remind everyone to please be respectful of the communities that are hosting these events. Show the locals how rad the bike community is by adhering to CoVID safety protocol.
Thank you and happy racing!
