Fat-Bike Radio, and The Weekly Dose of Fat, are made possible through support from Surly Bikes. You can learn more about getting rad at  http://surlybikes.com. On this week’s show: We will be taking call in guests all show to ask the question If you could do one major upgrade to your current fat-bike, what would it be? We have muppets We reveal next week’s Call-in question We’ll talk fat-bike and Plus Bike news in the Fatty Farm Field Report And, as always, we’ve got fat and plus sized Links ACTION ALERT: Yellowstone National Park has again chosen to ignore non-motorized uses in its next round of Winter use management. Please comment by FRIDAY AUG 21st, and let the park know how important Winter non-motorized use is to you. Specifically, Fat Bike access would allow a greater number of people to enjoy their National park in a safe way - part of the Park's mission. A small test section of Fat Bike access would allow the Park to study and understand this fast growing user group. However, at this point the Park has simply said FAT BIKES WILL NOT EVEN BE CONSIDERED.
