Fat Bikers from all over meet at Allegany State Park for Friday night fun rides and you're invited!
Fat Biking
Challenge yourself with fat biking! A "fat bike" has a mountain bike frame with wide tires, minimum of 3.8 inches, allowing you to go where a normal bike won't take you. Bike through the snowy trails of the Enchanted Mountains.
